KSU offers new degree for entrepreneurs

Budding business owners have a new degree option at Kennesaw State.

The bachelor’s degree in entrepreneurship was approved by the Board of Regents Aug. 10 and will be available to students beginning fall 2017.

“Offering the state’s first comprehensive degree in entrepreneurship illustrates Kennesaw State’s commitment to producing innovative graduates who are well equipped with theoretical and practical knowledge,” said Ken Harmon, provost and vice president for academic affairs.

This new undergraduate program will help students become successful entrepreneurs and business owners.

It will operate in multiple disciplines across the school’s curriculum. The Robin and Doug Shore Entrepreneurship Center at KSU will provide students with guest speakers and other resources throughout the program.

Kathy Schwaig is the dean of the Michael J. Coles College of Business.

“We are so excited to offer Georgia’s only major in entrepreneurship at a time when the state and the region are keenly focused on economic development and creating new businesses,” she said.
