Certificate in Social Sciences Entrepreneurship

51-107 Credits

The Certificate in Social Sciences Entrepreneurship combines a major in social sciences from the College of Sciences and Humanities (CSH) with the Minor in Entrepreneurial Management from the Miller College of Business (MCOB) and seminar/workshop and career counseling preparation from the Career Center to facilitate the transition of CSH science graduates from academic science to employment and advancement in the corporate (small or large) science. The transition is as much cultural as it is substantive. The interdisciplinary, multi-college curriculum and co-curriculum recognize that the preparation for a successful life in the social sciences begins with the first step after graduation, which may not be graduate school for all.
