The career path in International Entrepreneurship is intended for students who want to start new businesses that will conduct commerce across national borders. The program of study blends theory with practical experiences in real businesses and provides an opportunity for students to develop and test their own business proposals. Students are not required to have business experience prior to enrolling, but prior experience with international business, with small businesses, or with new ventures will make their experience richer. Graduates will have the skills to start successful new businesses either on their own or with the support of large established corporations.

MBA students who complete this career path will earn concentrations in entrepreneurship and international business.
