ENTRE 579: Grand Challenges for Entrepreneurs – Winter 2019 (Posted 10/31/18)

We want to promote the following graduate course from the Foster School of Business.

Grand Challenges for Entrepreneurs explores big problems and opportunities facing society, ranging from healthcare and education, to poverty.  The course examines how solutions to these massive challenges can be researched, validated, and implemented using such entrepreneurial tools such as design thinking, business models, and lean entrepreneurship.

Students in the class will develop an  entrepreneurial mindset; when others see insurmountable problems, entrepreneurs look for opportunities to use technology and innovative thinking to solve real world problems. An entrepreneurial perspective is also a wonderful way of thinking in order to tackle new opportunities in entrepreneurship, whether it is in government, NGOs or for-profit companies.

Please note that non-Foster MBA students will need to wait until December 17, 2018 at 8:00am before you can request for the class. You can email mbaregis@uw.edu with your request at that time.
