After its inaugural year, the Entrepreneurship major has shown great promise. Led by Associate Professor David Jorgensen, the program helps students become confident leaders, creative thinkers, and skilled professionals through hands-on coursework, guest speakers, and real-world consulting experiences.

RWU also offers the Collegiate Entrepreneurs’ Organization (CEO), where students can network, develop business ideas, and join a supportive community that encourages innovation and growth.
