FGCU’s B.S. in Entrepreneurship provides students with a comprehensive set of skills to create and lead new ventures or acquire jobs in established companies. Businesses recruit entrepreneurship students because of their eagerness to take initiative and see opportunities where others only see problems. The learning environment is both applied and experiential. Students regularly interact with both retired and active business owners. Upon graduation, students have multiple options available to them. This is because we encourage students to start their own companies during their undergraduate coursework and allow them to work on those businesses in our classes daily. Many of the students graduating with the B.S. in Entrepreneurship move directly into managing their own businesses full-time.
