Why earn a degree in entrepreneurship at UND?
Studying Entrepreneurship at UND means learning how to make big ideas come to life. You'll get hands-on experience working with real clients on real projects, and have an opportunity to learn with men and women who have started where you are now — and succeeded.
But as any successful entrepreneur will tell you, building something built to last takes more than just a concept. It means understanding business inside and out.
As an Entrepreneurship major, you'll be part of UND's Nistler College of Business & Public Administration, the largest business program in the state; your coursework will build a foundation in marketing, accounting, management and finance. Faculty have decades of experience in service, retail, international business, manufacturing and social enterprises.
