About the Program

The WEI Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EIR) Program, a pioneering initiative at Stanislaus State, is designed as an interdisciplinary endeavor with a core objective: achieving convergence. This convergence signifies a deeply collaborative fusion of disciplines aimed at catalyzing a transformational, positive regional impact in entrepreneurial and innovative spaces. Our EIRs are committed to providing advisory support to faculty and students embarking on journeys in entrepreneurship and innovation.

Conversations with Authors and Artists (CAA) is a recurring event: twice a semester. Our first two events were in Spring 2023. The series format is for Professor Jesse Wolfe (English Dept) to interview two faculty, usually from CAHSS, about a book they have written or other comparable scholarly or creative achievement.
