Saint Louis University's undergraduate concentration in entrepreneurship integrates the classroom and the real world. You’ll interact with successful business owners and master the key skills of creativity, market focus and planning — all of which are essential to successful business ventures.

You’ll have access to world-class business resources hosted at the John Cook School of Business, including our nationally recognized Center for Entrepreneurship and the Billiken Angels Network, which sometimes funds student-started firms.

The Entrepreneurship Club is a student-run organization that connects students to entrepreneurship opportunities outside the classrooms. Every Thursday, the group hosts Billicon Valley, inviting startups from across St. Louis to network with our students and learn about internship and career opportunities.

Students in SLU’s entrepreneurship program participate in campus-wide competitions for new ideas, make elevator pitches and launch social ventures.

SLU's urban location will also provide you with many internship opportunities outside the classroom. Most positions are paid, and some may earn you academic credit. Supervised by both a representative from the organization and a faculty mentor, SLU students have interned with a large variety of entrepreneurial firms in the St. Louis area.
Possible career paths for SLU entrepreneurs include business founder, venture capitalist, strategic consultant, business process re-engineering consultant and project engineer.
