Join us for the Fall 2009 Entrepreneurial Celebration on December 2
5:30 pm, RCF 400 

During the Celebration, students from HCC's Entrepreneurship & Creativity class present their business ideas in a timed, judged competition.  Students in HCC's Innovation to Market class are also timed and judged as they present their feasibility studies that are based on government inventions. This is a free community event.  For more information or to register, email cebe@howardcc.edu or call 443-367-3104.

HCC's Entrepreneurial offerings continue to grow!  ENTR-215, Taking Innovation to Market, is offered each semester and is an Interdisciplinary and Emerging Issues Core course.  Students in any degree program can take this course to fulfill that core requirement.  This course is offered through funding by National Science Foundation grant number 0538751.  Students in this course become part of a dynamic and innovative team that evaluates existing inventions from local laboratories, determines their viability and possibly finds a new business venture.  Does all this sound exciting to you?  The course is offered each semester, so plan now to enroll in the Fall.  For more information on Technology Transfer, visit the TAP website.
