Entry Level Entrepreneurs:
Making the leap

What are the questions commonly faced by budding entrepreneurs as they near the pinnacles of their academic careers? Should they dive into Entrepreneurship headfirst or focus on building a career? Have you ever thought starting your own enterprise during or directly after school? Do you have fears of making the big leap?

The panelists engage the undergraduate students at Northeastern with relative perspectives from peers who have successfully taken the leap into Entrepreneurship.

Come prepared to find inspiration and realize your own potential while learning about the calculated risks associated with making the decision to pursue entrepreneurial activities out of college.

Open Classroon: The 21st Century City: Urban Opportunities and Challenges in a Global Context

03 Dec 2009 23:00:00 GMT

20 West Village F
Thursday, December 3, 2009, 6 – 8pm

This is the Policy School's fourth "open classroom" policy series, through which we select one graduate-level seminar and open it up to the public each semester.

This course offers a multidisciplinary approach to the wonders and challenges of urban life in the 21st century, focusing on the economic, social, and political dynamics of central cities and suburbs. The course begins by exploring the evolution of U.S. cities from the 18th to the 21st century. This is followed by an examination of the factors that determine the economic health of cities. A large part of the course is devoted to studying key urban policy issues from education and housing to urban crime and transportation.
