Graduate
Credits 3
Like MBA 751 Professional Practicum I, this practicum course is designed to provide Accelerated MBA students with a valuable professional experience at a Greater Worcester business or nonprofit organizations requiring a minimum of 20 hours per week. It continues the student’s practicum experience from MBA 751, or gives the student a chance to explore a different work experience. Students attend bi-monthly seminar/classroom sessions to share and analyze the learning and challenges in their internship experiences. While students will continue to strengthen strategic communication skills, maintain positive mentoring relationships, and reflect on their overall internship performance and career goals, they will explore more advanced managerial topics such as culture, decision making, and negotiations. They will synthesize their learning and experiences in a final integrative project.
