FYS 1244 - Introduction to Innovation

Credits: 4
What does it mean to “innovate”? It’s more than you think! And it’s something you can do. Build a business. Start a nonprofit. Change the way things work, here and now, as you learn how to leverage entrepreneurship opportunities to make the most of your liberal arts degree.

In this FYS class, taught by the director of the Encompass Distinction, we’ll be engaging closely with real-world scenarios as we research the challenges and opportunities all around us, creating effective solutions. Carroll County will be our laboratory as we bring in special speakers from the nonprofit and business communities, research challenges and opportunities, and work on launching YOUR own innovative ideas that will compliment whatever future paths your academic and career choices take!
