We teach you to solve problems
See Why Entrepreneurial Leaders are the FutureAs the longstanding leader in the field and a top business school that's consistently ranked as one of the best business schools for undergraduates, we revolutionized entrepreneurship undergraduate education over half a decade ago. Our approach continues to grow as we teach entrepreneurial leadership, a skill set and mindset anyone can learn and implement.
Entrepreneurial leadership is people first, with an emphasis on experimentation and providing real social value, setting you up for sustainable success. Entrepreneurial leaders evaluate the impact their actions have on their lives, their communities, and the greater world, and then act, constantly learning and reacting throughout the process. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to it either, as Babson students and alums tackle challenges ranging from the role of technology in society to climate change to supply chain issues to healthcare access.

We provide the tools to become a change-maker
Learn More about Our ET&A ApproachEntrepreneurial Thought & Action® (ET&A™), our signature methodology, is found in everything we do at Babson and in our undergraduate program. It’s a skill set and mindset combination that’s exclusive to our curriculum. It allows you to analyze any situation and find creative, practical solutions through experimentation and thoughtful action.
Our students have the experience to turn challenges into economic and social opportunities with confidence. You manage risk, make strategic decisions, and provide value for society, yourself, and your larger community. You leave Babson as an assured, knowledgeable entrepreneurial leader, someone who not only wants to influence change but has the toolbox to enact it.

We mix the theoretical with the practical
Explore How Our Curriculum Is Built to LastA Babson undergraduate degree comes with a healthy focus on the liberal arts and sciences—and that sets us apart as a top undergraduate business school. You take courses to not only build out your fundamental business knowledge but to develop the critical thinking and communication skills the professional world demands. When you graduate from our undergraduate programs, you have the tools to determine the impact technology, individuals, and businesses can have on society and the planet, as well as the drive to make concrete changes that better our world.
Sustainability sits at the forefront of our undergraduate business program curriculum, too. In your second or third year, you will take Socio-Ecological Systems (a required undergraduate course), which dives into the role humans play in causing and fighting climate change and explores possible solutions to this growing crisis. The class is taught by a natural scientist and a social scientist, emphasizing how society and nature are interconnected and how we can use systems thinking to address issues regarding water, natural disasters, food systems, and urban development.
Foundations of Critical Inquiry and the discussions within the class have allowed me to broaden my understanding of the issues so many are faced with daily ... My main professional goal is to become an entrepreneur that focuses on making a social impact. The Babson curriculum has allowed my knowledge to flourish in that area.”

Find Out More about Hands-on LearningYou read that correctly. In Foundations of Management and Entrepreneurship (or FME, as our students call it), you turn an idea into a tangible venture—all while learning what actually makes a business work. You learn business by doing business, and that’s just in your first year of your undergraduate education. It’s hands-on learning for a hands-on life.
And that’s not all, as you’ll have opportunities for hands-on experience and experiential learning during your entire time at Babson, through classwork, internships, job shadows, tactical learning, extracurriculars, and campus partnerships. In your fourth year, you will even tackle a company or nonprofit’s actual business challenge on the actual job as part of your studies. It’s an educational philosophy that makes us one of the top business school undergraduate programs.
Babson takes pride in the Foundations of Management and Entrepreneurship class. Not only do we get to start our own venture, but we get to start one with other people who have the same goals in mind.
