Seton Hall University will be offering a new entrepreneurship undergraduate course for students studying in Arts and Sciences, Education, Nursing or Diplomacy. All students enrolled in these majors are eligible to enroll this fall.
The three-credit general elective course, BMGT 2110 Exploring Entrepreneurship is open to all non-business school undergraduates at the University. BMGT 2110 is offered through the Stillman School of Business, and is taught by Associate Management Professor Dr. Elizabeth McCrea. The course is designed specifically for non-business students. There are no prerequisite courses required to enroll in this course.
Seton Hall’s website state that the school is offering this course, “Because we know that students outside of the business school are extremely creative and innovative. We want to provide you with the insights and tools you need to start your own business. You can then put your knowledge to use by starting a business here on campus as a student, or later on, after you graduate and are a professional.”
The course will prepare students to enter the 2015 Pirates Pitch Business Idea Contest to win $10,000 in prizes. The Pirates Pitch is the university’s venture fund competition. The event is sponsored by the Center for Entrepreneurial Studies in the Stillman School of Business.
The contest is open to all undergraduate and graduate matriculated students who are enrolled in full-time or part-time at Seton Hall. Pirates Pitch kicks off in January 2015 and the final competition is held in April, 2015.
The BMGT 2110 Exploring Entrepreneurship course meets Tuesdays and Thursdays at 11:00 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
