Babson was the first academic institution in the world to offer a course in entrepreneurship. Since then, we’ve been internationally recognized as the leader in entrepreneurship education.

Entrepreneurship isn’t just an academic discipline at Babson. It’s a way of life. Our faculty and staff recognize the interdisciplinary value of entrepreneurship and weave it throughout our curricular and co-curricular programs. The skills learned through our entrepreneurship programs are vital for the success of any business -- large or small, public or private, corporate or not-for-profit, local or global.

Babson students can holistically apply the management skills of traditional business disciplines to the recognition and shaping of entrepreneurial opportunities. And, they develop business models that make use of those opportunities in ways that create value. While our entrepreneurship programs provide a broad skill-set for business they also provide highly customized paths in specific areas including new ventures, franchises, corporate ventures, socially responsible companies, and family-controlled enterprises.
