If you truly want to become an entrepreneur. I say become an engineer. All businesses start with a product and by being an engineer, you might just have the tools to create such a product. The only bad thing is conditioning the creative mind. Many engineers are too linear and cannot develop their own creative ideas. I guess it comes from all the years of deductive reasoning/analysis. While some have a more entrepreneurial mindset, creating products in order to create companies. If you ask me, an engineer is more capable of creating a company than a business major. In entrepreneurialship, the books explain theoretical/practical approaches of starting a company, whereas an engineer could just create a product and sell it, poof there’s a company.

I have always thought of entrepreneurialship as something rather simple. Create(or acquire a product) and sell it. Sell a lot, and learn as you go.
