Credits: 3

Topic for Winter 2011:

BUS 195: i.Startup (3). As a cocktail, i.Startup would be one part Entrepreneurship 101 and one part Amazing Race. The course is designed to provide students at an early stage in their college career with not only a solid foundation in “the basics” of entrepreneurship but also a sense of what it “feels like” to start and sustain a new venture. Course content includes readings, brief lectures, case discussions, and a term-long simulation of a startup venture—from idea to exit and the stages in between. Touve.Staff.
