Student Testimonials

Mindy Tiu

Commercial Leadership Program, General Electric Company

The I&E courses have been extremely valuable for me. I’m learning skill sets that will help me whether I work for a large company or decide to start my own business someday.

Monica Raofpur

Cloud CRM Sales Consultant, Oracle

The entrepreneurship courses I took helped me understand how businesses operate and what it takes to create and deliver a winning business presentation.

Tina Dimitrova

Honors Student, University of Texas at Dallas

The UTD Seed Fund Course has given me the opportunity to gain real world experience in the venture capital space. As an undergraduate, there are not many opportunities available that give you this amount of responsibility and potential for impact. It’s great for anyone interested in entrepreneurship, finance, or investing.
