Scientific Track
Dr. Lowry Caudill and Dr. Joe DeSimone teach the scientific track. The class explores entrepreneurship in scientific and technological fields. Through the course, students learn the entrepreneurial mindset and acquire skills including negotiation, business plan creation, and how to raise capital. Throughout the course, students work in groups to create a business plan for a scientific venture of their own creation.
The Scientific Ventures class is designed to equip students with the necessary skills to create a science or technology based business. It’s a privilege to part of this program.

…having taught the course once and now teaching it again, what I love about this course the most is the level of ingenuity that I am seeing in the students…I am simply blown away by their ideas and questions...I think the students in our entrepreneurship minor are a special breed [and] it’s a pretty special environment for me to participate in…

It has been an experience that is truly unrivaled by any other course curriculum at Carolina. I doubt there is any other class that can prepare students so thoroughly for the opportunities and challenges of fu ture entrepreneurial endeavors.
