Abstract
By framing entrepreneurship courses in the context of interdisciplinary team projects, students build important work-related skills whether they pursue an entrepreneurial path or employment after graduation. However, the traditional classroom environment is not conducive to realistic interdepartmental interactions found in most corporations or startups. The authors describe a model for interdisciplinary collaboration between students in entrepreneurship and computer science engineering programs to cultivate the development of real software products. The authors outline the partnership and illustrate how sister courses covering lean startup and agile software development methodologies complement each other to foster realistic projects.
