At Iowa State University, entrepreneurship is a campus-wide theme. We believe that every student in any major can pursue entrepreneurship.

Maybe you’re already working on your own venture. Or maybe it’s that you keep a moleskine tucked away dedicated to ideas but don’t know where to start. Heck, you might not even know what entrepreneurship is or at the very least how to spell it!

We firmly believe that learning what entrepreneurship is and how it can work for you is valuable to any study or major you’re pursuing. With it, you can take the science and theory of your major, and learn how to turn your ideas into a practical entrepreneurial venture.
