In the Master of Business, Entrepreneurship, and Technology (MBET) program, students gain knowledge both in and out of the classroom. They benefit from networking opportunities, hands-on experiences, and practical learning alongside like-minded individuals within the Waterloo entrepreneurship community, all of which complement the core master's-level coursework.

Students are immersed in an experiential learning environment and through the program, are focused on the commercialization of their ideas to build a venture. Students will also explore creating new ventures within an existing organization in a corporate innovation project, and will also collaborate with early-stage technology startups to validate their business model. 

MBET is a graduate entrepreneurship master's program that combines interdisciplinary courses with practical experiences in venture creation and commercialization, offered in 2 formats: the full-time program which is completed in one yearand the part-time program which is currently completed in three years.
