The world of business is a rapidly changing global environment. At Susquehanna University,
the Leadership Institute For Entrepreneurship (LIFE) introduces students to finance, banking, stock and bond markets,
sales, advertising, global trade issues, and, most importantly, the significance of effective collaboration. The
week long program engages students in studies and experiences that foster interests in possible business careers.
The LIFE faculty and staff are affiliated with the University's Sigmund Weis School of Business. Dr. Leann Mischel, Assistant Professor of Management at SU, coordinates the entrepreneurial simulation. Mr. George Cravitz, the LIFE administrative coordinator, is a member of Susquehanna's Education Department and the advisor to the University's "Students in Free Enterprise."
Program assistants are Susquehanna University students who live with participants in the campus residence.
The LIFE program structures time for leadership, entrepreneurship, and working with others; time for team building; and time for creating relationships and having fun.
The cost is $495, thanks to a scholarship provided by Toyota Motor Sales, USA, and covers room, meals, and program materials.
