Our facilities are unbelievable and allow for a unique classroom experience. Group work is especially encouraged so there is a strong feeling of team commitment amongst all students. Being in the nations capital gives us a unique perspective on current events and allows us to take what we see around us and build a business perspective on the political world. There is a strong entrepreneur feeling in most students that is encouraged by the facility and administration.
I wish there were more entrepreneurial options available and that the school wasn't so focused on banking and Wall Street. The management program is a joke. Entrepreneurship class with Prof. Finnerty is a great class though. I wish there were more offered like it.作者: s 时间: 2010-9-15 21:04
The business school also has access to the Georgetown University Alumni & Student Federal Credit Union (GUASFCU) which is the largest student run credit union in the nation. This gives unparalleled real-world experience and responsibility to undergraduate business students. It builds teamwork, communication skills and financial savvy.
The location in Washington certainly makes it very accessible for a wide range of companies in their recruitment efforts. The opportunities students have to get internship experience in DC are fantastic. A wonderful part of the business program is the liberal arts core. Unlike other programs, Georgetown emphasizes a holistic approach to learning, and requires courses I would have otherwise been ignorant of.作者: s 时间: 2010-9-15 21:05
The interdisciplinary nature of the curriculum and the students. The norm for most students is a double major, minor, or some combination. People are not just Finance majors, but Finance/International Business with a minor in government. Georgetown allows its students to be well informed in many different academic areas.
The advisers have been instrumental to my experience. They are very responsive, hold walk-in hours every day, and are there to help students in any way possible. Georgetown students in the College have much worse experiences with their advisers.
The caliber of the professors. Most have important real world experience that helps them relate ideas to students. Opportunities for entrepreneurial student run businesses like the Georgetown University Alumni and Student Federal Credit Union (www.guasfcu.com) and the Corp, Inc.作者: s 时间: 2010-9-15 21:05
The business school really pushes students into investment banking. Finance + accounting are the majors to be, and investment banking is the job to get. It is not very diverse in its thinking, yet the follow through suffers a bit. The classroom prep is good, but we need programs that actively engage students to get them ready for interviewing. It's available, but a very passive approach.
The new Rafik Hariri building is one of the most amazing buildings I have seen on any college campus, and it has been an absolute joy to study in.
The school manages to offer mandatory useless classes while making it difficult to get into the interesting ones that actually matter.作者: s 时间: 2010-9-15 21:05
It is small and there is a lot of personal attention. Also, the professors often employ undergraduate students as research assistants as opposed to using MBA students. The new building is also beautiful.
Georgetown's business program pulls heavily from the Jesuit ideals of the business program -- students seek to work together and value one another's contribution. In an interview waiting room, students will be helping each other prepare and encouraging each other. Furthermore, these ideals are characterized by the passion of the professors in the program that truly want the students to learn and build personal relationships with them
