TCU’s Neeley School of Business introduces a special four-week summer
program for non-business majors, May 15 – June 9, 2006. The program
provides a certificate in business for students in their junior or
senior year of college and for recent college graduates.
“Today’s
workforce requires business essentials in every career field,” said Deb
Baker, program director for the Summer Business Program. “The Neeley
School’s Summer Business Program is designed to give non-business
majors expertise to advance as leaders within their chosen field, as
well as a competitive edge in the job market.”
Classes are
typically 9 am to 4 pm, Monday through Friday, including field trips to
corporations and organizations. Registration and deposit are due by
April 10, 2006.
“Students experience creative learning by
operating a simulated company,” added Laura Meade, academic director
for the Summer Business Program. “They learn hands-on business
applications such as: writing a business plan, accounting, human
resources, marketing, ethics and business law, information management,
supply chain strategies and fundamentals of finance and economics.”
Noted
business leaders, managers and entrepreneurs share meaningful advice
with students throughout the program. Summer Business Program students
also benefit from valuable training in leadership skills, team
building, communication and presentation, resume writing and successful
job interviewing.
