Program for Entrepreneurship Researchers

Research on entrepreneurship has flourished in recent years and is evolving rapidly. This CGSE program presents an analytical framework that organizes student researchers the thinking about the domain of entrepreneurship research by specifying elements, levels of analysis, and the process/context. Ours includes practice needed for future progress, particularly the need for a rigorous entrepreneurship that relates entrepreneurial activity to economic growth and human welfare. 

Entrepreneurship research fuels entrepreneurial activity and helps educators make a lasting impact on the field.

Published research is the backbone of academic careers, and publishing in top journals helps elevate both individual and departmental impact. The CGSE Fellows Program for Entrepreneurship Researchers is an immersive online academic writing workshop for all entrepreneurship scholars to gain a profound understanding of entrepreneurship research.

This program will help scholars gain a better understanding of the landscape of entrepreneurship research including the history, methodology, and research opportunities. Over eight weeks, you will receive coaching and mentoring from top entrepreneurship faculty and peers, and you will leave with a six-month work plan that will enable you to submit a finished paper to a journal for consideration.

To gain the most benefit from this program, participants are required to have an existing working paper that they can revise throughout the seminar. They should be able to devote a minimum of eight hours a week to work on the development and writing of the paper that they bring to the seminar. This is a hands-on writing workshop in which the involvement of the faculty and mentors is leveraged through devoting time to writing.

Elevate your dissertation research, develop a secondary research stream, prepare conference proposals, and build a strong portfolio of academic publications while growing your network in the field. There also will be a 30-day follow-up to encourage continued momentum.
