IECE Faculty Fellows

Supporting Entrepreneurship Campuswide

The IECE Entrepreneurship Faculty Fellows Program is an initiative that seeks to support faculty from across the University who are interested in integrating an entrepreneurial mindset and related approaches into their specific discipline through curriculum development, teaching, research, commercialization of research or outreach activities. The program is open to full-time faculty members from all academic areas on campus.

Fellows are appointed to work on activities that link their specific discipline to entrepreneurship or are focused on commercializing emerging research. Fellows will receive initial grounding in the discipline of entrepreneurship, learning about the nature of entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial behavior, the fundamental components of the entrepreneurial process, and academic entrepreneurship. Subsequently, the Fellows will participate in informal meetings that include discussions regarding cross-disciplinary applications of entrepreneurship and allow for the interchange of experience and ideas, with an ongoing guidance and support from IECE entrepreneurship faculty. The Fellows will also participate in an annual meeting to share progress and outcomes of the project they are working on and highlight their accomplishments.


Becoming a Fellow

Our next round of applications to be accepted will be announced. Applicants must propose a professional initiative that reflects the interface between their own academic discipline and entrepreneurship. Funding of up to $6,100 is available to support the projects.
