All UBC graduate-level students with a strong interest in entrepreneurship are encouraged to apply.
Application Overview
To enrol in this class you must self-register for this course.
For students in STEM (School of Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) and as well as Arts, Law, Mining, Forestry… please enrol in APSC 541.
For students in the MBA program (Sauder School of Business), please enrol in BAEN 506.
Students should keep 3 credits free for the term in which the course is offered (no credit space required for the preliminary classes for team formation) RHL students must keep: 1.5 credits free for each of the two terms in which the course is offered (again, no credit space required for the preliminary classes for team formation).
APSC/STEM graduate students (PhD and Masters where applicable) should obtain a letter of permission from their faculty advisor approving participation in this course (typically for students already engaged in thesis work). If you do not yet have an advisor, this is not required.
Commitment
Tech Entrepreneurship is a very popular course and is typically over-subscribed every year. If admitted to BAEN 506/APSC 541, students will need to enrol in the class with the understanding that they will be committing to a team effort that cannot tolerate drops or absences, and requires meeting as a team outside of class time. Dropping the course late denies someone else of a place as late sign-ups are not possible once teams are formed. There are mandatory pre-course meetings for ALL students (see schedule on main page). By enrolling in the class, students are committing that they will attend all classes in full.
Enrolment
- Enrol yourself into the APSC 541 or BAEN 506 class manually or by adding yourself to the waitlist.
