Identify growth opportunities. Launch a new business venture. Lead a new business unit and drive growth within an organization. Test yourself in the real world beyond the classroom.
Whether you're starting a company from scratch, launching a new division in an established organization, or seeking to invest in new ventures, entrepreneurial skills are crucial to identifying and evaluating the factors that will make your undertaking a success.
Georgia Tech's leading-edge entrepreneurship curriculum integrates all areas of business and takes students beyond the classroom, allowing them to test themselves in real-world settings.
Through Georgia Tech's Enterprise Innovation Institute, and their Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC) program, students get the practical tools and experiences to start, finance and manage their own business, or to embark into technology entrepreneurship and social sector entrepreneurship careers.
Electives explore the processes through which new businesses are created and effectively managed. Courses are designed to prepare students to work as self-employed individuals, members of new and/or small businesses, or for larger firms that practice entrepreneurial management.
