Outstanding faculty
Entrepreneurship is one of the star attractions of this program. –Princeton Review |
We constantly ask ourselves, our alumni and successful entrepreneurs, how can we do a better job of preparing our students for their entrepreneurial journey? We continuously improve the curriculum –generally changing and improving 30% each year. We ensure that every student receives instruction from leading academic scholars and from highly successful entrepreneurs. We are very proud of the fact that our quality of instructors is the best. the price College of Business awarded 20 of its instructors an alumni teaching award. of those 20 instructors, six taught entrepreneurship courses: Lowell Busenitz, Mike Dillard, Steve Ives, Daniel Pullin, Scott Rayburn and Jeff Wallman. of the six entrepreneurship recipients, four are adjunct professors. one of those adjunct professors, Steve Ives, received a national award for master teacher from the acton foundation.
We spend a tremendous amount of time training our teachers. Adjunct professors go through a rigorous training program to teach case studies using the Socratic method. Before teaching a single class, our teachers observe more than 100 hours of case teachers in the classroom and participate in the acton foundation's teacher training seminar. they spend more than 2,100 hours in classroom teaching preparation; invest more than 50 hours in dvd-interactive learning with Participant–Centered Learning and the Case Method from Harvard Business School publishing; and continue to collaborate with all price College entrepreneurship instructors through meetings and summer half–day retreats.
