Turner School of Entrepreneurship and Innovation

Dream, Design and Develop Your Ideas!

Innovative Curriculum: Whether through the Interdisciplinary Innovation (SEI INV) degree completion program, a minor in Entrepreneurship and Innovation (SEI SEI) or a transcript distinction from the Entrepreneurial Scholar Program, the Turner School of Entrepreneurship and Innovation seeks to ensure an academically rich environment for all Bradley students to build the necessary entrepreneurial skills and innovative thinking for a successful career.

Co-Curricular Engagement: Vital learning also happens outside the classroom. We provide this through: Brave Pitch, Social Impact Challenge, Big Idea student-venture competition, entrepreneurial internships, mentoring connections, the Collegiate Entrepreneurs' Organization (C.E.O) student club, and much more!

Community Connections: Build your business network across campus, the community or around the world, all with our support. The Turner School of Entrepreneurship and Innovation provides ongoing opportunities to immerse yourself in the entrepreneurial ecosystem by connecting you with entrepreneurs and experts while you pursue your innovative ideas and passions.
