Leadership in business is all about working in teams, and that's how we structure our program. From your very first semester, you start building teamwork skills in Management 100, the hallmark of your freshman year, where you'll work in a team of 10 students to plan and execute a community service project for a Philadelphia non-profit. Imagine what it's like to throw 10 high school leaders into a group where only one person can be in charge! It's a great lesson in group dynamics and will show you that there's more to leadership than leading. Chances are you'll make some of your closest friends, too.
Sound challenging? It is! But it's also extremely rewarding, and we promise that you won't go through it alone. You'll be helped every step of the way by Team Advisors, upperclassmen who will coach you on assignments, offer guidance on your project, and ease your transition to Wharton and Penn. They've been through it all — and you'll benefit from their experience and advice.
