Built by Spartans. Backed by Burgess.

The Burgess Institute for Entrepreneurship & Innovation at Michigan State University is a nationally recognized leader in entrepreneurship education.

Built on the belief that the same skills that make for successful entrepreneurs also make for successful humans, the Institute takes an education-first approach to helping students lead lives of impact. We equip Spartans with the entrepreneurial mindset, real-world experience, and the community they need to create meaningful change.
