Entrepreneurship Track in the Customer-Driven MBA Program

The Fogelman College is pleased to announce that it is accepting applications for the new Entrepreneurship Track in its Customer-Driven MBA (CDMBA) program.  The entrepreneurship MBA offers selected students a funded full-time MBA program designed to provide them with the range of skills as well as facilitators that they will need to start and grow their own technology-based companies.  The program will offer selected entrepreneurial-minded students a $6,000 stipend and tuition waiver.

The full-time Entrepreneurship MBA is a 21-month program that entails intensive study in traditional disciplines as well as in-depth training focused on the development of the student’s ability to write and defend a fundable business plan in a specific industry.  The AACSB accredited MBA curriculum will encompass business core courses as well as specialized entrepreneurship electives.  It will also include 1:1 interaction with industry-specific professionals with proven entrepreneurial track records who will be assigned to each student.  The program’s capstone project will be a presentation of a student-developed business plan to a panel of potential investors with the goal of securing seed funding appropriate to launching the business.

The Entrepreneurship MBA program is funded in part by a generous contribution from the Hyde Foundation.
