Entrepreneurship Means Implementing Innovation at Manchester University!

Introducing Dr. Temple Grandin – One highly creative woman and innovative entrepreneur.

Temple Grandin is the Manchester University 2012-2013 Innovator of the Year. Temple will come to Manchester’s North Manchester, Indiana campus on Thursday March 6, 2014 to accept the award in person and to address the University community, alumni and the public. Each year this award goes to one person who not only recognized critical problems but then did the difficult work to implement innovative solutions that benefited large numbers of people around the world. Temple certainly did all this. She identified significant problems in not one but two specific fields: animal science and the study of autism.

The Johnston Entrepreneurship Program at Manchester University is about scattering the very powerful seeds of entrepreneurship across a global society. More than 1,400 institutions of higher education offer at least one course in entrepreneurship and many of these programs cover much the same ground. But here's the key difference. At Manchester, you can study in any major field you like and also earn our Certificate in Innovation. We train Manchester students to set their own innovations into motion. Our young entrepreneurs will be change makers.
