The VANTAGE Experience

Students learn fundamental concepts of economics, research best practices, persuasive techniques, public speaking and effective communication. They explore business principles and functions with an emphasis on innovation, operations management, marketing, human resource management and finance. 

Students are paired with a one-on-one mentor for the year as part of the VANTAGE program. Each semester, they work on external company projects, working on a real-world problem/challenge. Students receive valuable insights through guest instruction and enriching site visits that align with their academic curriculum. Throughout this experience, students develop and hone essential skills such as professionalism, teamwork, effective communication, problem-solving and leadership.
