Cultural Entrepreneurship B.A.World Languages & Cultures
College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences
Cultural entrepreneurship is an emerging academic discipline that examines how cultural products traditionally associated with the fine and liberal arts, such as art, theater, poetry, and literature, but also cultural activities such as sports, music, food, and film events, are having an increasingly important impact on the growth of local, national, and global economies. Cultural entrepreneurship scholars thus study the impact of culture on economies, and develop new strategies for enhancing local livelihoods by creative, new, sustainable, socially responsible ways of producing income through cultural activity.
The B.A. program in cultural entrepreneurship stresses the centrality of culture in the success of entrepreneurial endeavors. Building on the concept of cognitive ambidexterity, it combines training in quantitative skills and predictive logic that is common in business schools with extensive work in creative logic and thinking, as it is most often cultivated in the liberal arts. Predictive logic refers to the ability to generate models, forecasts, and estimates, while creative logic addresses the ability to self-examine, understand social contexts, and to shape the future by identifying courses of action and negotiating complexities of human decision-making.
Students in this program will complete an extensive core of business and entrepreneurship courses, including economics, finance, accounting, operations management, organizational management, financial management, marketing, human resources, statistics, and entrepreneurship. Students will also receive a Certificate in Business Administration from the Labovitz School of Business and Economics (LSBE). They will receive instruction in at least two languages, and choose classes from six skill areas intended to foster their creative thinking skills and intercultural competency: Creativity and Design; Empathy, Ethics and Respect; Meaning; Picture and Story; Play and Discipline; Symphony and Synthesis.
The program includes courses from all five collegiate units. Majors are encouraged to incorporate a study abroad experience into their programs. The UMD Study in England program at the University of Worcester is particularly well-suited to accommodate the need of transferable courses for students in the cultural entrepreneurship program.
