“We know students are looking for value, and our program will provide high return on investment for students both in terms of money and also how they spend their time. Small class sizes will help our career coaches develop more individualized plans and relationships with students, allow students to interact with faculty in live sessions and have their voices heard in discussion forums.”
Featured Faculty
“
My role is to help students take complex legal principles and break them down so they can apply them to their jobs as managers. I want them to leave with concrete pictures and ideas about how the law intersects with the jobs they will do. If it is all esoteric and theoretical, then it doesn't connect to their real world. I want to bridge that gap.
”
“
I'm here to assist the students' understanding of the material and then to help them apply it to real situations. I want them to be able to analyze and think critically about what they come in contact with in life. On the first day of class, I talk to the students about their interests and experiences, and I draw on these experiences in my lessons.
”
“
I relish the opportunity to influence students and shape their careers and, thus, have an impact on the world indirectly. I also enjoy the opportunity to share my research findings with regular people or skeptic executives and convince them about the non-intuitive findings related to the ways technology is transforming our lives.
