Yes, you can be entrepreneurial in a large (old) organization. Santa Clara University (SCU) has developed a Master’s
of Science in Entrepreneurship with an emphasis in Global Innovation (MSE-GI). This isn’t the first time that SCU’s Leavey
School of Business has been entrepreneurial.
In 2010, the school launched CAPE, an entrepreneurship education program
for non-matriculating students. The fifth
cohort started this summer with 50 participants. In 2013, the Master’s of Science in Finance
and Master’s of Science in Entrepreneurship started. The MSE-GI is an overhaul of last year’s MSE;
however, this time the program is focused in both scope and market.
The MSE-GI program is a 12-month, full-time post baccalaureate degree
program for international students in Silicon Valley. The program integrates
course work and internships to equip students with business skills and
practical experiences necessary for successful careers in a range of
organizations from start-ups to established market leaders. International
students will be immersed in the business landscape, culture, and network of Silicon
Valley and study under prominent Silicon Valley scholars, gain experience with
local firms and network with business leaders. Additionally, students will gain
the skills and contacts to enable them to lead entrepreneurial projects and
intrapreneurial opportunities.
SCU was founded in 1851 in the heart of Silicon Valley. The university now
has over 8000 students across undergraduate and graduate degree programs.
The first cohort will begin in June of 2015.
