MCE's Entrepreneurial Work terms and internships

Graduate and undergraduate students spend a semester working full-time on their idea while receiving startup coaching, peer support, a bursary of $4,500 and in some cases, academic credits. Students enrolled in an entrepreneurial work term will have to attend MCE workshops, the Evolution program at Genesis and the Y-Combinator Startup School. They also attend an internal fireside chats series on advanced topics.
