ENTR101 Entrepreneurial Mindset

This interdisciplinary course introduces students to "mindsets" and explores the core components of an entrepreneurial mindset. Students develop the key entrepreneurial habits of curiosity, observation, opportunity recognition, experimentation, adaptation, and problem-solving. Students shape their ideas into innovative solutions through "design thinking" projects while learning new skills, including interviewing, brainstorming, prototyping and iteration. Students learn that mistakes contain valuable learning experiences and the importance of self-reliance, resourcefulness, creativity, role models, and comfort with ambiguity. These entrepreneurial skills and behaviors help students create successful lives by expanding options for any major or vocational path.
