Develop the entrepreneurial mindset and innovation skills to lead in a changing business landscape.
The MS in Entrepreneurship and Innovation curriculum takes an applied approach to developing, evaluating and implementing new ideas. You’ll learn to recognize opportunities, assess their feasibility and potential impact, and create strategies that align innovation with organizational goals. Coursework also considers the ethical, financial, operational and managerial dimensions of entrepreneurship.
Through projects, case analysis, team-based problem solving and iterative experimentation, you’ll put entrepreneurial concepts into practice. You’ll use approaches such as design thinking, systems thinking and innovation frameworks to develop ideas and move them from concept toward execution.
Note: In Fall 2027, Drexel University will transition from a quarter-based academic calendar to semesters as part of its broader Academic Transformation.
- Spring 2027: Students will begin under the quarter-based calendar and 2026-27 academic requirements before moving to semesters. Students will receive program-specific guidance and support throughout the transition.
- Fall 2027 and Later: Students will follow Drexel’s new semester calendar and updated program requirements. Explore the 2027-28 course catalog preview.
