ISU to launch entrepreneurship major
Students who want to become entrepreneurs will have more options this fall at Iowa State University. The College of Business announced it will begin offering an undergraduate major in entrepreneurship this fall. The Iowa Board of Regents gave its final approval for the program at its July 18 meeting, making ISU the first public university in Iowa to offer an undergraduate major in entrepreneurship, said Raisbeck Endowed Dean David Spalding. Earlier this year the college also received approval to launch a doctorate program in entrepreneurship, which will begin this fall. The college also offers a minor in entrepreneurship. The undergraduate program will be in the university catalog beginning fall 2017, but students can begin the program this academic year.
