Course Description

This course allows students to learn about special topics in entrepreneurship that are not taught as part of the regular major or certificate programs in entrepreneurship.

This course is repeatable to a maximum of six semester hours, as topics vary.

Fast fashion, driven by globalization, has negatively impacted our environment. In this course, students will explore the importance of environmental protection and social responsibility in developing products for global markets. They will discover the influence of heritage and innovation on entrepreneurship and fashion while exploring new and positive ways the fashion industry can contribute to sustainable, ethical, intelligent, healing, and inclusive clothing.
