McGuire Entrepreneurship Program

The McGuire Center, a pioneer in entrepreneurship education, continues to be recognized as one of the nation’s elite entrepreneurship centers, offering a variety of educational opportunities that are both rigorous and enriching. Teams of highly motivated students master the conceptual and practical skills needed to turn ideas into ventures, solve real-world problems and serve the needs of real people in society. Undergraduate and graduate students from the Eller College and from across the University of Arizona learn through a combination of expert in-class teaching, intense hands-on practical work, and guidance from dedicated and experienced mentor-entrepreneurs.
