Hey graduates! If you were a business major for your undergraduate studies or are interested in business, check out this new certificate program offered by Stanford University:

The Stanford Graduate School of Business will launch a new 20-week evening Program in Innovation and Entrepreneurship in January. Applications for this certificate program are now available.

Aimed at industry participants who do not have an MBA, as well as entrepreneurial graduate students, the non-degree program will expose participants to fundamentals of business and practical aspects of moving a business idea forward. The 60-person program will bring together Stanford PhD and other non-business graduate students with Silicon Valley innovators, scientists, and engineers to gain greater understanding of the pathways to commercializing innovations and to learn general management skills. Since 2006, the business school has conducted a successful four-week program, the Summer Institute for Entrepreneurship, which teaches entrepreneurship to non-business graduate students in life sciences, engineering, and the humanities.

Cool sounding, right? If you’re interested in learning more, read up on Stanford’s website.
