Academics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

MIE 310 | Introduction to Entrepreneurship<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Introduction to planning, formation, and management of entrepreneurial ventures. Fundamental business concepts and managerial skills applied to entrepreneurial ventures. Course projects support experiential learning of critical skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*For Entreprenuership Minors, this course can substitute as MIE 309*<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MIE 410 | Business Opportunity Analysis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Issues and management processes related to the identification of new business opportunities with emphasis on commercializing new technologies. Students will analyze and develop individual plans for commercialization of a new technology or other innovation. New venture formation is the primary focus, but the processes and skills students develop are relevant to new product introductions by existing firms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M 380 | Doing Business in the UK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This experiential course combines in-class learning with out-of-classroom experiences to learn how business is done internationally from multiple perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*The M 380 course fulfills 3 credits of the interdisciplinary degree requirements for all NC State students. In addition, it counts as an elective for the business administration minor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-Requisites<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The MIE 310 course offered in the first part of this program is a pre-requisite for the MIE 410 course offered in the second portion of this program. Enrollment in MIE 410 is predicated on successful completion of MIE 310. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a student fails the pre-requisite course and is not able to repeat the course before the start of the program, he or she will be required to withdraw from the program and the refund\/withdrawal policy will come into effect. Exceptions to the refund\/withdrawal policy<\/a> will not be made due to a student\u2019s failure to pass the pre-requisite course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
