       ENTREPRENEURSHIP HIGHLIGHTS
For more than 175 years, Rensselaer has exhibited a unique strength in its ability to translate scientific discoveries into practical application, a process that it refers to as technological entrepreneurship.


The Office of E*ntrepreneurship provides leadership and coordination for campus entrepreneurship activities and stages several events focused on enhancing the student, faculty and alumni experience at Rensselaer.

As a core strength and a priority in the Rensselaer Plan, the new model for E*ntrepreneurship at Rensselaer expands its definition as a campus-wide opportunity.

 A process by which an individual or team recognizes an opportunity, develops an idea and applies initiative, creativity, and innovation to transform that idea into something that creates new value, which in turn creates new opportunities. 



 
Widely practiced at Rensselaer, it is reflected in commercial, scientific, technological, social and cultural achievements.
 

In bringing the definition to life, we believe that it's not essential that everyone become an entrepreneur, but in today's world, it has become important that everyone be able to think like one.
