BBA in Entrepreneurship

Do you dream of running your own business? Of being your own boss? The entrepreneurship stream at StFX is for you.

In addition to providing the knowledge you’ll need to start and grow a business, entrepreneurial skills are in high demand by fast-paced industries who must quickly adapt to new challenges. They’re also sought by community and not-for-profit organizations, who sometimes need help identifying and pursuing entrepreneurial initiatives.

You should consider the entrepreneurship stream at StFX if you thrive on taking responsibility and initiative, like a challenge, search for creative solutions, and want to set your own career path. Entrepreneurship students are persistent and determined, and are never satisfied with the status quo.
