EPS3538 Growing Pains: The International Experience
4 Advanced Management Credits
We hear a lot about the growing pains of entrepreneurial ventures, but sometimes these pains are hard to understand unless you've been on the inside. This course will put you inside an international growing venture as part of an online consulting team that incudes students from Babson and from Manizales, Colombia. Together you will help a growing venture solve a real growing pain. This is a four-credit course managed and taught online by a faculty member from Babson College and a faculty member from the Autonoma University in Manizales, Colombia. The course provides important lessons on the major challenges that companies face while growing - and it provides students from Babson and Autonoma the opportunity to work together in teams to apply the lessons in a consulting project for a growing business in Manizales. The student teams will also contribute to and participate in cultural lessons about Manizales and the US, especially Boston. By application.
