ASU is no longer accepting new students to this program. Please explore Degree Search for other similar program options.
The certificate program in technology entrepreneurship is designed specifically for engineers.
Engineers and scientists around the globe launch high-tech companies to move their ideas to the market. Studies show that the majority of innovative products and services in the economy evolve from entrepreneurial ventures.
The certificate program provides students with knowledge and skills important to the creation and leadership of such startups so they may become tomorrow's founders and leaders of high-tech ventures. Courses are approached from the perspective of the student whose primary interest is in technological innovation, whose primary concentration is engineering, and who has little or no prior business education.
- College/school:
Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering
The qualifications for admission to the certificate program in technology entrepreneurship are having junior standing in a bachelor's degree program in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering and successful completion of the selection interview process.
The selection interview process consists of two parts: a letter of intent written by the student to the selection committee and a live interview with the selection committee, which consists of at least one faculty member, one entrepreneurship program advisory board member and one member of the regular engineering faculty.
Each selection interview is conducted according to a fixed format, with each certificate program candidate having the opportunity to respond to the same set of questions. Students are asked to contact the department for more information.
A student pursuing an undergraduate certificate must be enrolled as a degree-seeking student at ASU. Undergraduate certificates are not awarded prior to the award of an undergraduate degree. A student already holding an undergraduate degree may pursue an undergraduate certificate as a nondegree-seeking graduate student.

Program term definitions
Accelerated programs allow students the opportunity to expedite the completion of their degree.
Accelerated master's
These programs allow students to accelerate their studies to earn a bachelor's plus a master's degree in as few as five years (for some programs).
Each program has requirements students must meet to be eligible for consideration. Students typically receive approval to pursue the accelerated master's during the junior year of their bachelor's degree program. Interested students can learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply.
Concurrent degrees allow students to pursue their own personal or professional interests, earn two distinct degrees and receive two diplomas. To add a concurrent degree to your existing degree, work with your academic advisor.
Joint programs, or jointly conferred degrees, are offered by more than one college and provide opportunities for students to take advantage of the academic strengths of two academic units. Upon graduation, students are awarded one degree and one diploma conferred by two colleges.
