Building an Innovative Business Program

When we think about what constitutes a curriculum, it goes beyond simply what is taught within the classroom. Curriculum incorporates the entire learning experience offered by a college or university. In addition to classroom experiences, it can include participation in case competitions, active participation in student groups, engagement with alumni and industry professionals, attending speaker series, supporting faculty in academic research, executive education or even participating in study abroad opportunities.
