The Conrad Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology Centre is a part of the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Waterloo, and was developed to support, build on, and expand Waterloo’s already-burgeoning culture of entrepreneurship.
Conrad builds on Waterloo’s reputation as a University known for connectivity to the outside world, research on advanced technologies, a strong focus on innovation and entrepreneurship, exceptional students and the reputation for producing the leaders of tomorrow.
Conrad’s flagship program, the Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (MBET) degree is distinctively Waterloo – providing students with an opportunity to pursue an intense, innovative and unique entrepreneurial business program focused on new venture creation.
Conrad and the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Innovation Research (IIR) partner to provide a focal point at Waterloo for multidisciplinary research on innovation. Researchers from several of Waterloo’s faculties contribute to IIR, helping to develop the next generation of faculty who will provide insight into the management and policy changes of innovation and commercialization.
Conrad works with organizations from around the globe to create high-impact learning experiences that develop decision-makers that drive innovation and accelerate success.
Finally, campus-wide, Conrad takes pride in developing initiatives to promote the spirit of entrepreneurship. We offer the Enterprise Co-op program, an entrepreneurial focused co-op option for undergraduate students looking to start their own business.
