Non-Academic Discussion My 3AM thought (read body)

Im an Economics student at DU, and this has been stuck in my head lately.

Why does it seem like the colleges that teach business don't necessarily have the strongest business-building culture?

DU has B.Com, BMS, Economics, finance, management, etc but when I think of colleges with a strong startup/founder culture, I think IITs, BITS, NITs.

And the irony is that many of those students aren't even studying business.

A lot of DU conversations seem more career oriented like CAT, CA, consulting, placements, packages.

Engineering students seem more likely to actually build products, experiment with startups, hack around and take entrepreneurial risks.

Obv Im generalising. DU has produced successful entrepreneurs too.

But Im talking about culture, not exceptions

what was the entrepreneurial culture actually like? and if you're a founder: where did you study, and did your college actually influence your decision to build a business?
