There are many ways to get an education but in this edition of the CSUF Entrepreneurship Insider Director Jackson discusses how our program uses intensive projects with real world implications to enrich our students’ education and increase graduation rates.
CSUF Entrepreneurship students will tell you two things about their education at Cal State Fullerton: 1. Majoring in entrepreneurship was a challenge and 2. It was the most rewarding experience of their education.
Why is majoring in entrepreneurship at Cal State Fullerton such a challenge? Every Entrepreneurship Major must complete four classes that feature consulting projects with real businesses and they must also take a pair of classes where they are required to develop a business plan for a concept they come up with and then work on the launch of that business. All of these projects require of our students a great deal of effort and forces them to actively apply what they are learning in the classroom to real world situations with real world results. These projects are called High Impact Practices and, as discussed in our article titled CSUF Entrepreneurship Students Get Hands On Experience, these classes do increase student engagement and lead to higher graduation rates. In addition to our professors and mentors, these projects make an entrepreneurial education at Cal State Fullerton a very rewarding experience. Sincerely,
John Bradley Jackson |
