Engineering Entrepreneurship Certificate

Non-business graduate students in any program at Georgia Tech may take the courses offered as part of the Engineering Entrepreneurship Certificate.

The program is open only to engineering students who have successfully completed the program requirements and earn a graduate degree from one of Georgia Tech's degree granting academic units. This Certificate will also satisfy the minor requirements for the Ph.D. degree.

This certificate is not available to business students. Business students interested in a certificate program should refer to the requirements for the non-engineering focused Entrepreneurship Certificate offered through the Scheller College of Business.

Certificate Requirements

Students are required to have a minimum GPA of 3.0 across all four courses to qualify for the Certificate. Students should have no more than one C in any of the courses required for the Certificate. The credit requirements for obtaining the Engineering Entrepreneurship Certificate for non-business students are 12 semester hours. Please note that these courses are popular and may not be offered every term. There are no guarantees that courses will be open. The Certificate is not designed to be completed in a single term.
