Tóm tắt

This paper provides a brief description of experiences with a technology-based entrepreneurship course developed in an engineering program, but serving the needs of a liberal arts university. The course, started with assistance from the National Science Foundation and the local business community, has been offered at Brown University over the last five years and was first described in an earlier article. The course model is designed to spin-in high technology product concepts into the university environment, which are further developed by an undergraduate entrepreneurship team and mentored by industrial professionals and academic faculty. This paper re-examines some of the key features of the course in light of the accrued experiences and addresses some of the more commonly asked questions, such as how the intellectual property issues are handled. In addition, we explore the impact the course has had on its alumni and their future plans, both in entrepreneurship and in business in general. © 2005 TEMPUS Publications.
