At Bowling Green State University, entrepreneurship is defined as the pursuit of opportunities through vision, leadership, and passion that challenges the status quo and transforms products, markets, services, or organizations. Entrepreneurship implies risk-taking, innovation, and growth, not necessarily ownership, and can occur in organizations of various sizes and at different stages of development. The goal of the BGSU Entrepreneurship minor is to:

• Encourage creativity, self-reliance, and a "can do" attitude among business and nonbusiness students through exposure to the entrepreneurship attitude.
• Promote an understanding and appreciation of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial organizations.
• Assist students in the development of their own entrepreneurial plans in an applied learning experience.
