Aside from the beautiful views from the classroom of the Austrian Alps, being a part of the 4 day class taught by Dr. Colleen Stiles in Innsbruck was a brilliant experience. 27 students from all over Europe and Asia were impressively open to learning how to be an entrepreneur and innovator.
We are very excited to talk about an exciting development from late last semester. We, down here at the BI House, received a Hydration Station through The Green Action Fund! BI student Regina Bohn and BI Faculty Nina Polok created a proposal to The Green Action Fund in Fall of 2014 for the Hydration Station and it is fully functional and set up.
The main difference between a Bachelor of Innovation degree and a Bachelor of Science degree is in the electives. The Major part of the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Innovation degrees in any particular field have nearly identical coursework. In a Bachelor of Science the degree is an almost even split between General education (including structured electives) and Major Courses, while in a Bachelor of Innovation the innovation core covers most of the General education requirements, a few college level requirements, all while providing practical knowledge of the innovation process, entrepreneurship, how to work in teams, technical and proposal writing, business and intellectual property. The BI also structures many of the electives into one of four cross discipline core, each of which is a structure set of elective courses.

This unprecedented program is motivated by a national need for innovation, and builds on our national reputation such as U.S. News and World Report rankings, that recognize UCCS as a leading university focused on undergraduate education. Being such a recognized leader in the region provides UCCS with a naturally innovative advantage.
It is not necessary just to take our word that an education in innovation is important. Please view a short news clip presenting Colorado’s own US Senator Michael Bennet. He recently visited UCCS specifically to discuss its unparalleled BI degree programs.

Special thanks to those innovation students able to meet with our Senator: Alex, Derick, Josh, Teryn, and Steve. Senator Bennet sent a personal thank-you to the BI program, stating that he left that meeting excited and energized. His daughters also had a great time. It is never too early to start recruiting new innovation students!
