HCU’s Master of Science in Management and Entrepreneurship program connects business theories with practical strategies for developing, designing, and building new ventures. It assists with the incubation of both for-profit and nonprofit business enterprises through education and expert assistance from industry leaders and accomplished professors.
This degree combines the prestigious Archie W. Dunham College of Business with the innovative HCU McNair Center for Entrepreneurship and Free Enterprise. Students study all facets of business, ranging from startup to stewardship, in the one-year program. The degree is specifically designed for those that did not major in business at the undergraduate level; consequently, no business leveling courses are required. And like the rest of the University, the HCU MSME program espouses the importance of Christian ethics and strong moral leadership.
The MSME is offered lockstep over the course of one calendar year. New student cohorts begin in the fall. A total of 33 credit hours are taken across 11 courses spread over Fall, Spring, and Summer terms.

Entrepreneurship Course Descriptions

“My parents were big on education, but they passed away when I was a teenager. I completed my education, being the first one in my family to do so, but didn’t have access to down-to-earth, practical advice. I wanted to start a college readiness program to help kids like me. The McNair Entrepreneurship Center has nurtured my aspirations from day one. The MSME degree at HCU is an invaluable resource to learn the skills needed to launch your own venture.”
