Build Career-Focused Entrepreneurship Skills
OHIO's Business Venturing and Entrepreneurship Certificate program will give you the firsthand experience you need to excel in a wide range of management and leadership roles.
Leadership Careers for Entrepreneurs
"Prior to the MBA program at OU, I had limited experience on how to start a business or where to even start. The entrepreneurship program provided an excellent foundation and framework to guide someone like me through the process but also allowed me to think outside the box and be creative in doing so. I found the program both informative and engaging and would recommend it to anyone who has thought about starting a business but doesn鈥檛 know where to begin. Start at OU!"
