How much of successful entrepreneurship is based on a skill set and how much is derived from innate ability? Check out the results.

Experience has taught us that many highly creative scientists and engineers graduate from colleges and universities, but few of them have the skills necessary to convert breakthrough advancements in science and engineering into viable products and services. Northeastern University has been a leader in teaching technology for a century, and we continue this tradition with our School of Technological Entrepreneurship, which provides opportunities for students to develop their skills for entrepreneurial endeavors.

We are a center of multidisciplinary activity that educates students from science, computing, engineering, health sciences and business, and draws on the expertise of faculty members from a wide range of disciplines and professional fields. Students study topics including intellectual property rights, technology licensing, product development strategies, marketing, finance and business plan development.
