THE BENEFITS OF ENTREPRENEURIAL STUDIES
When evaluating various potential college majors, many students assume that an entrepreneurial studies degree is only for people who want to go into business for themselves. While an entrepreneurship degree offers benefits for aspiring business owners, the skills and concepts learned in entrepreneurship courses can benefit almost anyone.
A degree in entrepreneurship is different from a typical business degree in several ways. First, entrepreneurship education is more practice-based. Instead of a focus on abstract concepts, entrepreneurship courses put more emphasis on how to identify and solve problems that can arise in nearly any business context.
Entrepreneurship education involves greater development of “soft skills” such as communication and resilience. Ultimately, pursuing an entrepreneurial studies major can be useful for anyone who wants to start a business, enter/expand an established family business, or work in a corporate role for an existing organization.
