Be Part of the msuENet Certificate in Entrepreneurship
msuENet is proud to unveil a complete entrepreneurship learning experience for both students and community members that culminates in a Certificate in Entrepreneurship. The Certificate starts with education and training at Michigan State University that provides entrepreneurs with understanding about the entrepreneurial mindset and venture creation, including planning and launching new projects. It then provides planning and mentoring and access to prototype and proof-of-concept funding from a generous endowment from the Gerstacker and Forest Akres Foundations. Finally, the certificate offers assistance to launch the new venture, including incubation space at the new Idea Hatch space in the East Lansing Technology Innovation Center. In sum, students at MSU can learn about how to create a new venture, get mentoring and financial help to get their idea started, use space for incubating their new idea, and move through the steps necessary to take their idea to commercial or non-profit status.
The figure below illustrates the path to the certificate.
