Sherman Co-Op

Unique, self-driven co-op that challenges students to develop their ventures over the course of a six-month co-op period, while being paid to do so. Success of the venture concept is not the goal of this co-op. Rather, the development of the entrepreneur (i.e. experiencing the good, bad and ugly of entrepreneurship) is. The venture concept is merely a tool for that development.

Entrepreneurial Engineering Minor

Undergraduate academic minor focused on the product development lifecycle, with all courses available to take for both Undergraduate and Graduate students as electives. Course instructors have real industry experience and Generate members have the option to use Generate to fulfil 1 minor course.

While technically not a student-run organization, the IP CO-LAB law clinic is an integral part of the Mosaic community. Under the guidance of its director and support staff, the Clinic’s student Members provide vital trademark, copyright and trade secret legal services to two “universes” of clients: inventors and ventures within Northeastern’s entrepreneurial ecosystem (any current or former NEU student, faculty member or staff member is eligible) and a limited number of local individuals and entities who are otherwise unable to afford IP-related legal assistance. Its goals are to enhance the campus innovative and creative environment and to foster opportunities for members of the Northeastern and surrounding community
