Entrepreneurship
The Prince Entrepreneurship Program inspires innovation — whether you come into the program with a business idea or you are simply interested in the entrepreneurship process. This is a hands-on major that consists of four required courses and two electives, which can be taken from multiple disciplines within the School of Business Administration — allowing you to pursue a double major or a minor in another business area.
