Students participating in Business as Mission are offered foundational learning as the educational entry point for exploring innovation.

The business courses offered are for students seeking innovation experience as a founder of a start-up, whether the start-up is a new ministry or company. Students do field-based work in entrepreneurship to develop their existing startup and explore new ideas and opportunities for startup ministries. Students are encouraged to work in teams but also have an opportunity to work in self directed projects while seeking guidance from mentors and instructors.

Through peer feedback, participants share their work on a frequent basis. Customized courses and projects help progress the student’s conceptual and leadership skills to meet the needs of the business and ministry settings.
