FAQ

Can entrepreneurship be taught?

Frameworks yes; execution requires doing. Best programs emphasize building real ventures, not theory.

Major in entrepreneurship?

Better as a minor or paired with a domain (engineering, design, biz). Standalone entrepreneurship degrees are less valuable than a strong primary.

Do I need it to start a company?

No. Most founders learn through doing. Helpful as scaffolding if you're committed to founding.
