How does entrepreneurship fit into university education? 

PSU’s mission extends beyond the classroom. In addition to student learning, the university strives for excellence in innovative research and community engagement that contributes to the economic vitality, environmental sustainability, and quality of life in the Portland region and beyond. Entrepreneurship fits into this mission by providing real-world educational and business development opportunities in a broad range of disciplines.
