Study What You Love Entrepreneurship
As The Path To Success And Fulfillment
(NAPS)--'I he United States has long
been considered a leader in entrepre-
neurial pursuits, with everyone from
ambitious self-starters to certifed moguls
making their way here from around the
glohe to transform dreams into realities.
According to the Global Entrepreneur-
ship Development Institute, the United
States provides the best enviromnent for
cultivating entrepreneurship, ranking
first out of 138 countries.
On the flip side, however, frst-time
business owners have only au 18 percent
chance of succeeding.
So how to bridge the gap between
tile dreamers and the triumphant? If
you're a student looking fi)r a way to
make your passion into your career, you
may be glad to learn there's a college
program that can put you on the right
path, while also providing you with a
classic liberal arts education. 'lhe new

with extensive experience advising and

lion and emerging growth companies.
He also approaches entrepreneurship
difl~:rently fiom oflwrs. Welch believes
that entrepreneurship, at its core, is find
ing and crealing value, and that studying
entrepren(.'tnship as an academic disci-
pline helps students learll to be innovative
in whatever field they uhimately pursue.
In less Ihan one year, l.ycoming

essary to take a business idea to fruition,
such as innovation, digital marketing,

College students can learn to run
their own businesses while still ben-
efiting from a liberal arts education.
"My No. I objective is to create a
world-class experience fi)r students by
ioining the liberal arts with entrepre-
neurship;' said Welch. "1 believe that

Firmly grounded in the liberal
arts, the College has modernized its
approach to higher education by offer-
mg courses that better prepare students
f)r the 21 st century.
