McGuire Center Undergraduate Clubs and Activities
Student Entrepreneurship Association
The Student Entrepreneurship Association, based out of the University of Arizona's McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship, is dedicated to connecting UA students from all colleges and encouraging entrepreneurial activities within and outside of the campus community.
Launched fall 2014, the club aims to draw UA students who have innovative business ideas and dreams of running their own business, regardless of their fields of study. The club's goal is to teach students the necessary skills to become successful entrepreneurs and business leaders of the future.
The club meets every Wednesday from 5-6 p.m. in McClelland Hall 126. New members are always welcome and food is usually provided. For more information, check the SEA Facebook Page, drop in on the next meeting, or contact Ted McGuire, community relations coordinator.
