Description:

The goal of this course is to create a working prototype of a marketable product or service within the semester.

They will partner with technology experts, hardware and software developers, and others to physically create the product. In-class time will focus on experiential learning with creativity and innovation exercises and weekly executive briefings. Out-of-class time will focus on readings, simulations, field interviews, and work on the product prototype. Throughout the exercise, students will receive guidance and feedback from a professional Product Development Coach. (RE) Prerequisite(s): ENT 350 with a grade of C or better.
