Overview

The Capstone Business Leadership Academy is a 10-day residential summer program designed for academically exceptional rising high school seniors (students in between their junior and senior years during the program) interested in obtaining an education and pursuing a career in business. Participants interact on an individual basis with university professors and working professionals through a variety of presentations and experiences.

The Academy also includes visits to top employers of business school graduates, including Fortune 500 companies and other national and regional leaders in the manufacturing, retail, and service industries. Students are given VIP treatment. Each student will experience personal interaction with top-level executives and a behind-the-scenes look at operations and facilities.

The program provides an atmosphere that will challenge and stimulate the participants. Each of the business disciplines – accounting, finance, economics, marketing, management, management science, information systems – is explored in interactive formats designed for in-depth exploration of their interests in these fields.
