What's involved?

Each program cycle is a 7-month time commitment that includes two face-to-face meetings as well as monthly zoom calls with your teams. One meeting in the Fall (Oct/Nov), one meeting in April. The meetings are organized to run like business meetings with experienced speakers, offsite industry tours, team building, a semester project, and peer/mentor networking opportunities.
