If you don’t just want to read about
business and memorize terms, check out our program. See what our students are
doing "today," to be ready for tomorrow’s challenges, not just ready
for a test.
We have begun a new innovative and
integrative curriculum that doesn’t just teach “about”
business, but rather focuses on how business works by using real projects and a
small business model. We call it the Get Real Initiative. At the heart of this initiative
is a new curriculum that is purposefully designed to help students to graduate
with a strong knowledge of fundamental business concepts, as well as the
practiced and proven ability to apply those concepts.
These efforts are accomplished through traditional lectures, simulations,
and cases. However, unlike most
schools, we don’t stop there; we infuse the curriculum with many intensive
hands on “real” projects helping local businesses through our Small Business
Support Center. Through these student projects, your professors become
coaches, as opposed to just professors professing knowledge. The goal through these projects is to
help you be more competitive for externships, internships, and later for your
career job after graduation.
Our program also features engaging facilities, a world class advisory board,
and faculty who are not only academically qualified, but who also have “real”
experience working with executives and managers of industry leading
organizations.
Another rich aspect of our program is the student’s high exposure to
technology used beyond the typical education and opportunities to develop deep
skills in areas of interest by being part of several student
organizations.
All of these aspects are centered by a teaching focus of instilling in
students an entrepreneurial mindset “to create value in the community
profitably,” as opposed to just teaching about creating wealth vacant of a
greater purpose, values or ethical principles.
