91�Թ� is thrilled to announce the launch of its newest online program for high school students, Stanford e-Entrepreneurship U.S. (SeEU). SeEU invites high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors from all over the United States to .  

Thanks to generous donor support, the inaugural class of Stanford e-Entrepreneurship U.S. will be offered free of charge to students.

The course will be offered through the Stanford Program on International and Cross-Cultural Education (91�Թ�). Its instructor, Dr. Makiko Hirata, has also served as instructor of a similar course—Stanford e-Entrepreneurship Japan (SeEJ)—for several years, but she considers this new course somewhat differently. “We must appreciate the different contexts from which U.S. students consider social issues,” Hirata notes. “In addition, the world we live in today is quite different from what it was when SeEJ launched in 2020, and it continues to change rapidly. I want this course to empower students with agility and confidence to address pressing global and local challenges.”  

Stanford e-Entrepreneurship U.S. will challenge high school students to unleash their creativity and design original solutions to real-world problems. In this hands-on, student-centered course, students will explore who they are, identify what drives them and why, and experiment with ideas that matter to them. Engaging with scholars and experts from 91�Թ�, Silicon Valley and beyond, the participants will work with peers to think with imagination, empathy, and strategy.

Students who successfully complete the course will earn Stanford Continuing Studies credit and a Certificate of Completion from 91�Թ�.  

91�Թ� is currently accepting applications. Interested students should apply at . The application deadline is September 29, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time.
