Startup Garage is an intensive, hands-on, project-based course in which student teams design and test new business concepts that address real-world needs.
Curriculum
In Startup Garage, students learn to apply the concepts of design thinking, engineering, finance, and business organization. We help teams identify unmet customer needs, design new products or services that meet those needs, and develop business models to support the creation and launch of those products or services.
Even teams that decide not to move forward with their ventures after the class will learn critical and broadly applicable techniques about starting and launching a venture. Over the two-quarter course, teams will interact extensively with the expert teaching team and a handful of seasoned advisors.
