Students asked and we listened. We know that it can be a balancing act to work full time and attend graduate school. Add managing a family into the mix and it can seem impossible. It’s not.
The graduate business programs at Boler already offer evening and online courses to provide flexibility for working students, and the re-vamped M.S. in Innovation and Entrepreneurship program will now feature Saturday courses in seven week increments that can be completed in just one year.
“We’re redefining entrepreneurship,” said Dr. Elad Granot, Boler College of Business Faculty. “Entrepreneurship doesn’t mean that you have to start your own business. Just look at the number of ads for jobs that request ‘entrepreneurial spirit’ or ‘ability to be entrepreneurial’. The skills students develop in this program are applicable to those in a corporate setting as well as to those who want to start their own company.”
Marketers, engineers, teachers and healthcare professionals are among the professions that will find great opportunities and benefits in this program such as the global study tour.
“It’s a global economy and Boler students will be prepared to operate and excel in conducting business internationally,” said Dr. Granot. “It’s important to understand how the rest of the world does business and to see the innovation taking place in other countries.”
The global study tour and air travel from Cleveland-Hopkins as well as accommodations and most meals are included in the tuition cost of the program. The Spring 2023 tour will be to Israel—now known as the start-up nation—and students will have the opportunity to meet with business leaders and tour companies as well as to visit the sites of interest to most tourists. Travel packages will also be available to purchase for those not enrolled in the program.
The new cohort begins in January and you can still , but you must hurry!
