Provides an introduction to the theoretical foundations of, and empirical research on, entrepreneurship. Our initial examination of the literature is organized around several broad topics associated with the identification, evaluation, and exploitation of opportunities and the creation of new organizations. Special topics in entrepreneurship that highlight recent advances in the field will also be addressed. The course will focus on the main questions that currently define the field and attempt to critically examine how, using a range of theoretical lens and methodologies, researchers have approached these questions.
