An MBA in entrepreneurship has business classes adapted for an entrepreneurial audience.
A typical MBA involves the study of topics such as marketing, finance, risk management, accounting, economics, statistics, operations, HR, organizational dynamics, business law, and strategy.
Many of these can easily be adapted to be more useful for entrepreneurs. A finance class can focus on venture capital more than the bond market. A marketing class can focus on new product development more than the promotion of existing products. A law class can deal with the issues most relevant to startups. The accounting needs of a startup exec are different than those a future partner at Deloitte. etc.
As a clear example of the type of content that an entrepreneurial class could cover, Steve Blank's book Four Steps to the Epiphany originated not as a book, but as the notes for his class at Haas.
