Testimonials
"I believe that I am learning about the most in the Capstone course which brings together everything taught in the business and science courses. Since it is a group project-based course where we are required to create a business plan from technology, it is the direct application of all that we have learned in the business courses. In addition to that, it helps us understand what things to consider when starting a business - how to create a business model, select markets, how to determine valuation and growth strategies, exit plan and much more. Along with the requirements of the course, I am learning a lot by media monitoring, and gaining new insights every week through insightful class discussions." (May 2019)
