THE MARQUETTE ADVANTAGE

IDEALISM AND REALISM TOGETHER. Unlike other schools’ entrepreneurship programs, Marquette emphasizes a realistic approach to lifelong career planning, not just quick-hitting, fast growth ventures. It’s an approach that benefits students who already run their own businesses, as well as those preparing for that eventuality.

KNOW YOURSELF. You’ll learn to recognize which business opportunities fit best with the type of person you are — intellectually, socially and, yes, even spiritually. A well-planned curriculum combined with classroom visits from a diverse set of successful entrepreneurs and consultants will give you a person-centered approach to entrepreneurship.

BEGIN NETWORKING NOW. Make connections through Marquette University’s Kohler Center for Entrepreneurship. The Golden Angels Network brings successful business owners together with students in the classroom and provides early opportunities for start-up investment, mentoring and advising — all of which are vital to future entrepreneurs.

REPUTATION. In its first year of being an official major, Marquette’s program was recognized by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the nation’s top 100.

FIND THE FIT THAT'S BEST FOR YOU. Because you must combine entrepreneurship with another business major, you’ll be able to embark on your entrepreneurial journey with skill sets that can help you succeed on your own or as part of a larger enterprise.
