EIU's Entrepreneurship Minor, open to all majors, teaches students to spot opportunities, protect their ideas, and build a venture plan. Through hands-on courses and experiences: guest entrepreneurs, field trips, a student-led national org chapter, and an annual Shark Tank-style pitch competition, students gain real skills to launch a business or grow a family enterprise.
