Description (taken from a site): The mission of the Social Entrepreneur Center is to promote the use of technology for social issues by creating sustainable enterprises. This will be achieved by
(i) creating an undergraduate major (and minors linked to existing majors) in social entrepreneurship well integrated with information and technology education,
(ii) fostering an internship program where students can add value to a company, an NGO (non-governmental organization), or a non-profit organization within US or in a foreign country by leveraging technology,
(iii) organizing an annual tech fair where socially-oriented high-tech companies and organizations connect with students, and
(iv) organizing seminars on social entrepreneurship.
