OUR MISSION
ABOUT US
The Shuford Program is grounded in the belief that all successful ventures—startups, social enterprises, artistic initiatives, or intrapreneurial opportunities—require healthy, confident leaders who have both the skills and the integrity to lead.
Student-Made is an experiential program that partners with colleges and universities to identify, engage and support creative student entrepreneurs of all kinds. Through the creation of an online marketplace, student Creators and Managers learn tangible entrepreneurial skills.

-
GROWING SUPPORT FOR STUDENT BUSINESSES

HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE FOR STUDENT MANAGERS

ACCESSIBLE FOR THE WHOLE CAMPUS COMMUNITY
Students, faculty, alumni and parents have the chance to support student ventures like never before.
The Shuford Program in Entrepreneurship inspires students from diverse backgrounds in the arts and sciences to approach the world through an entrepreneurial lens. We equip students with the skills to identify and validate opportunities—from for-profit ventures to nonprofit and social innovation initiatives—scale them, and achieve a successful exit.
About the Shuford Program
