Entrepreneurship and Technology Management Track

In addition to the Foundation courses, students must complete the following (other choices may be possible; these would need to be discussed with and approved by the track advisor):

One technology gateway course, to be chosen from:

ENGN 0410 Materials Science (for students interested in functional materials or nanotechnology)
ENGN 0720 Thermodynamics (for students interested in energy and environmental topics)
ENGN 0510 Electricity and Magnetism (for students interested in photonics and device technology)
ENGN 0310 Mechanics of Solids and Structures (for students interested in machine design and instrumentation)
CSCI 0150 Introduction to Algorithms and Data Structures (for students interested in information technology and computer
engineering)
BIOL 0200 Foundations of Living Systems (for students interested in biotechnology topics)

Students must also complete the following:

ENGN 1930G/ 1930H Entrepreneurship I and II Capstone Project

and a five-course track in a Technology Management Specialization as approved by the BEO advisor in Engineering.

Sample courses of interest to students pursuing typical tracks (5 required in each track, selected in consultation with the track advisor) are listed below. Remember— the list of available courses is always changing. Some courses have prerequisites that are not listed, but need to be considered in planning. Also remember, it is not possible to list all specialty tracks; those shown are only samples.
