Society of Business Engineers
SBE is a student organization founded in April of 1999 on the belief that providing opportunities for engineering students to develop business skills and learn about possible career opportunities in the business world would be a rewarding investment for their future. Combining business with an engineering curriculum gives one the ability to possess a technical background while being able to apply it to the business world. Membership is open to any undergraduate or graduate student who is enrolled in an engineering program.
The central mission of the Burton D. Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship is to promote a culture of entrepreneurship, with activity in both commercialization and education.
