Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership
·
We help students, faculty, staff, and recent
alumni embrace the entrepreneurial mindset.
·
Our programs, events, and competitions are open to
all UCF students from all disciplines and degree programs.
·
We also offer FREE one-on-one coaching in the Blackstone
LaunchPad (located on the first floor of the Student Union); our
coaches have experience from a variety of industries and serve clients at every
step of the entrepreneurial journey.
You might be wondering why students in the College of
Engineering would be interested in entrepreneurship. Engineering students have a
natural knack for innovation; they might know how to create something, but need
some guidance on commercialization. We can help students learn and practice the
entrepreneurial mindsets and skillsets that are sought after by leading
engineering employers like Siemens and Harris.
Upcoming Events and Competitions
·
We’ll be kicking off the semester with a series
of events during the second week of classes (1/14-1/18) – all of the events
are featured on our website.
·
Additionally, the JOUST
New Venture Competition will be taking place this spring, with up to
$75,000 awarded in seed funding and in-kind services.
·
More information, including eligibility and
important dates, is all available online.
Remember – with the exception of competitions, our
resources are available to you as well! If there’s any way the CEL could be of
service to your students or for your own entrepreneurial pursuits, don’t
hesitate to reach out.
