Theoretical and Empirical Perspectives on Entrepreneurship (Doctoral Education)

By: William R. Kerr
    ShareBar

    Description

    TEPE explores scholarly work from economics and finance disciplines regarding entrepreneurship--the formation and growth of new firms. While work on this topic dates back to Schumpeter and earlier, academic research regarding entrepreneurship has exploded over the last decade. Reflecting the complex nature of the entrepreneurship, TEPE touches on multiple academic disciplines and research methodologies. There are now two complementary doctoral classes, each taught every other year, with the Spring 2021 course focusing on topics related to corporate finance, including entrepreneurial finance and behavioral economics. The spring 2022 course will focus on entrepreneurship and its relationship to other disciplines in economics, such as its link to industrial organization, organizational economics, and economic growth. Offered jointly with the Faculty of Arts and Sciences as Economics 2726.
