Entrepreneurship involves generating value by recognizing opportunities and mobilizing resources to capitalize on them. Students pursuing an Entrepreneurship major explore this dynamic process across various settings, from launching new ventures to managing small or family-owned businesses. They tackle key questions like: How does creativity fuel entrepreneurial success? What constitutes a business opportunity, and how do enterprises emerge from them? What role does family play in shaping a business? The Entrepreneurship and Small Business Major stands out with its distinctive features. Our curriculum includes specialized electives covering entrepreneurial leadership, inspired by honorees of the University of Manitoba's International Distinguished Entrepreneur Award—visionaries like Richard Branson, Anita Roddick, and Howard Schultz. We also provide focused courses on innovation, social impact ventures, and Indigenous entrepreneurship. Hands-on learning is central to our program, with immersive activities exclusive to the U of M, such as crafting business plans for acquisitions, developing tech-driven startups, designing iPhone apps, and prototyping paper aircraft in our 'Kitty Hawk in the Classroom' challenge. Our students consistently outperform global peers in business plan competitions, setting a benchmark for excellence.
