Summer Business Institute - Program Topics
The Summer Business Institute is a four-week non-credit business certificate program for college students and recent graduates with a non-business major. The program starts at the beginning with business basics and helps you broaden your knowledge and understanding of business through in-classroom and out-of-classroom experiences.
The Institute is comprised of both academic modules and special interest topics including real-world and current events. Topics are integrated throughout the curriculum so you will be introduced to new concepts and skills as they are needed. Fundamental concepts presented early in the course will be built upon as the program progresses. The month-long program will conclude with a group presentation to a corporate audience. Groups will be critiqued on both their analytical and presentation skills.
You’ll leave the Summer Business Institute armed with the critical business skills, tools, and credentials to help you shine in the workplace and reach your goals.
