The actual structure of the modules will be determined by the individual professors, and in many cases the modules will be taught by teams of instructors. In addition, students will be assigned to intact work groups each semester. Part of their experiential learning will result from working in partnership with actual businesses, initially learning about business operations, and later working on and developing solutions to actual business problems. According to Dr. Martin Bradley, project coordinator, the program is developing a sense of excitement. As a result of Bradley's efforts, and those of the admission office, when classes resume in the fall, enrollment in the three year program should be between 15 and 20.
People resonate after hearing about the program.
They are excited about the project and the delivery system. Our faculty see this as a new opportunity and a challenge. In fact, we have four of the last five Teaching Excellence faculty teaching in the first year. Bradley is clear to make the point that this type of experience is not right for all students. Many students will continue to take four or, in some cases, five years to complete their baccalaureate degree programs.
