2011-2012 University Catalog

Entrepreneurship Practice Minor

Banner Code:  ENPR

The minor in entrepreneurship practice provides an introduction to the business skills needed to participate in an entrepreneurial business venture.  Because it is designed for students who wish to learn the skills essential for successful practice of entrepreneurship, the minor draws on the School of Management’s minor in business core courses to provide knowledge of business concepts, while offering exposure to entrepreneurship studies within other disciplines.  Students must have completed 30 hours (sophomore standing) to declare the Minor in Entrepreneurship Practice and take the minor courses.

Students must complete five courses for a total of 15 credits. At least eight credits of the minor courses must be unique to the Entrepreneurship Practice Minor and not applied toward any other major, minor, or concentration. Students must achieve a grade of C or better in each course that is applied toward the minor.

For policies governing all minors, see the Academic Policies  chapter of this catalog.  The School of Management residency requirement for this minor supercedes the university requirement:  at least nine credits must be earned at Mason.
