The Social Entrepreneurship & Change program prepares socially conscious individuals to make a lasting impact by analyzing complex social problems, creating sustainable market-based solutions for entrepreneurial and established organizations, and improving management and leadership skills. Learning culminates with a two-term capstone project devising a new social enterprise or related project within an existing organization. Students develop a thorough business plan in collaboration with successful mentors and faculty who are scholar-practitioners and nationally recognized experts. Validated ideas are presented to industry leaders in a "Shark Tank" style Fast Pitch Competition with multiple participants receiving funding to launch their venture.
