The Burgess Institute for Entrepreneurship & Innovation at Michigan State University is a nationally recognized leader in entrepreneurship education. Built on the belief that the same skills that make for successful entrepreneurs also make for successful humans, the Institute takes an education-first approach to helping students lead lives of impact. We equip Spartans with the entrepreneurial mindset, real-world experience, and the community they need to create meaningful change.

The Minor in Entrepreneurship & Innovation, open to all majors, emphasizes both the entrepreneurial mindset and the process for launching and growing a startup. Through coursework and experiential learning, students gain the confidence to create and apply entrepreneurial thinking to launch ventures, lead teams, or drive change in any field.
Spartans thrive in community. They make space at the table, lift each other up, share knowledge, and build with and for others. They are supported by each other, alumni, and entrepreneurial leaders who invest in the next generation. The Institute is not just a launchpad—it’s a lifelong community for Spartans to build something bigger with purpose, passion and a team that’s got their back.
