NBA 6910
Physical Product Entrepreneurship

Course information provided by the 2021-2022 Catalog.

The Physical Product Entrepreneurship course introduces students to the renaissance in physical product development created by the emergence of new desktop manufacturing technologies, small-scale production, and internet based market aggregation all combined with Lean Startup principals. Unlike an engineering course that focuses on the "nuts and bolts" of creating a physical product this course will examine the creation of the product business itself rather than the actual device. This course is appropriate for the student exploring the creation of a hardware startup as well as students pursuing a career in product management at a physical product company. In this course, students will form teams and take a product idea through all stages of product development - business model development, prototyping, funding, manufacturing and fulfillment. Topics covered will include current product development ecosystem, Intellectual property, manufacturing and materials, scaling, roles, core documentation, and more.
