Curricular In-Person Experiences

• Residencies - 2 days in Harbor East

“The Leadership and Organizational Behavior residency helped to turn course topics on “leading through adversity” and “resilience” into practical skills and knowledge. Reflecting on the team exercises and case studies helped demonstrate how academic concepts apply to real-world scenarios. The residency also emphasized involvement in extracurriculars and provided a great opportunity to develop networking skills.”

“The Harpers Ferry experience benefits my career because as a consultant, I am always working on new teams with internal and external stakeholders. This experience allowed me to practice the skillsets necessary to ensure dynamic teams can still be successful. It also exposed me to unforeseen risks and challenges, which provided an opportunity to apply those skillsets under pressure and gain confidence in decision-making when there is an element of ambiguity.”
