The Entrepreneurship, Social Innovation, Value and Change Pathway is an Integrative Pathway within Connecticut College's Connections curriculum. It provides a structured curricular track for undergraduates to explore entrepreneurial theory, creativity, innovation, and experiential problem-solving across disciplines. The centerpiece is a Thematic Inquiry course described as a "rigorous startup incubator program" where students develop business models, test assumptions, and research target markets.

    Application and Timing

    Students select the Pathway via the Connections curriculum. Thematic Inquiry course is offered on a semester basis. No standalone application deadline — treated as a structured curricular option with standard course registration timelines.

    Participants

    Open to all Connecticut College undergraduates across majors. Cohort-based and cross-disciplinary, typically starting sophomore year.

    Funding and Equity

    No dedicated venture funding. Students may access the college-wide $4,500 internship/professional development fund for startup-related internships, but there is no advertised seed fund tied to the pathway. No equity taken.
