The Commercialization Area of Concentration (track) emphasizes innovation, technology commercialization and entrepreneurship to prepare graduates to assume leadership roles in emerging business organizations.  The cornerstone of the Commercialization track is the Integrated Business Project (IBP) that serves as the primary tool to integrate the curriculum across functional courses throughout the program and requires students to learn practical business tools by creating and delivering research-driven business plans that focus on the commercialization of new technologies.  Most of these technologies come from the OSU Office of Commercialization and Corporate Development or industry partners (ONAMI, OSHU, Hewlett Packard, Boeing, etc.).  The IBP represents the prime distinguishing feature of the Commercialization MBA program at Oregon State University.
