Student Business Incubator & Accelerator

A Framework for Success

Research suggests that most entrepreneurial businesses fail primarily due to the inexperience of the dreamers who start them.


The Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation intervenes with an environment in which creativity is shaped by solid business knowledge.


Students will experience what it means to start their own businesses well before graduation.


In fact, upon graduation, student entrepreneurs should have a finely-tuned business plan ready to execute, one that has survived student and faculty critique based on the experience of faculty mentors who have traveled down the same entrepreneurial journey.


Students will also have many opportunities to conduct customer discovery research to validate their business models and make necessary iterations to improve business success.
