3D-DREAM IT, DESIGN IT, DEVELOP IT: A VENTURE DEVELOPMENT COMPETITION WITH A COCURRICULAR OPTION

Abstract

The 3D Challenge is an experiential co-curricular venture competition intended to connect students with the business community while further developing entrepreneurial classroom constructs in a meaningful way. Students are challenged to dream, design, and develop (3D) their idea throughout an academic semester. The competition provides a creative outlet for students in an advanced entrepreneurial management course to make use of their education, while also providing non-business creative and technical students an opportunity to explore their interests and talents through the lens of an applicable selfemployed career. Through creative partnerships with local economic development agencies, students are able to build their creative venture with assistance and counsel from successful entrepreneurs. The blended learning opportunity connects theoretical academic constructs with successful entrepreneurs.
