The ELS minor continues to be one of the fastest growing minors at Tufts. Each semester, more than 200 Tufts undergraduate and graduate students from a range of disciplines pursue the minor in Entrepreneurial Leadership. With access to outstanding teachers, intensive coursework, lectures, internships and real-world business networks, students develop the advanced knowledge needed to become the entrepreneurial leaders of the future.

One of the biggest assets of the program is the esteemed faculty. Courses are taught by professors who have real-world experience and continue to have illustrious careers starting, founding, or running their own businesses.

The Entrepreneurial Leadership program utilizes several learning approaches including:

• Guest lecturers discussing key entrepreneurial topics
• Case studies with individual and group review and analysis
• Classroom group exercises
• Homework assignments coordinated with classroom topics
• Discussion of current events related to course materials
• Hands-on opportunities via internships and the Classic and Social Business Plan Competitions

To complete the Entrepreneurial Leadership minor, students are required to take four courses plus one elective course. The minor is open to all Tufts Arts & Sciences and School of Engineering students.

Students who have completed the necessary requirements to earn the minor in Entrepreneurial Leadership should complete the minor certification form.  A ceremony for the Entrepreneurial Leadership graduates is held in May.
