Innovation Hub
Applications are now open
The Innovation Hub provides budding entrepreneurs and student-founders the tools and resources they need to spark innovation and create new ventures. Located on the ground floor of the Nicol Building, the Hub is an open space for students to become inspired, make connections with like-minded peers, and advance their entrepreneurial ideas. Students from all faculties on campus are invited to engage with Sprott students and other entrepreneurs involved in building new ventures. In addition to developing their skills and business ideas, participants will receive access to a host of resources and connections within the entrepreneurship ecosystem in Ottawa.
Make sure you follow the Hub on social media, and keep up with the events and activities being offered to the Carleton Community and the Ottawa Ecosystem as well.
Consider studying Entrepreneurship at Sprott
If you prefer to study entrepreneurship in a more formal manner, students can do so at the graduate or undergraduate level. At the undergraduate level, B.Com and B.I.B students can do a concentration in Entrepreneurship: choosing between courses that include entrepreneurial strategies, business development, practicums in business design or business creation, personal selling, managing family enterprise, managing change, creative thinking, managing technology and innovation, international new ventures, and international expansion and operations, or a stream in Entrepreneurship which includes entrepreneurial strategies, business development, and both practicums in business design or business creation. Students from other faculties can also do a minor in Entrepreneurship to complement their own academic studies.
At the graduate level, students can join the Technology Innovation Management program and choose one of six degrees available at that level. This unique master’s program, is internationally known for successfully training aspiring entrepreneurs and technology innovation managers on creating wealth at the early stages of new companies or developing new business opportunities in existing firms. The program focuses on the launch and growth of new ventures using emerging technologies to make a difference on the marketplace, and the design and implementation of digital business transformation and growth seeking initiatives in existing companies.
