More about SBA Scholars
The Scholars Program is a competitive, academic program which requires students to apply and interview before they are selected. In the program, students experience unique opportunities. They are recognized for academic achievement and, through networking and community involvement, they become a very cohesive and productive group.
Other activities include selecting and tracking a company’s strategies and financial results over the course of the year. By working closely with the SBA's Executives-In-Residence (EIR), business executives who donate their time as advisers and mentors, a robust ongoing dialogue takes place. The students learn firsthand how world events, political decisions and the economy can influence decisions and stock prices of the companies they are tracking.
Bi-monthly meetings provide leadership development training and noted business professionals also present topics relevant to the times. For example, Rande Somma, past president, Johnson Controls, recently spoke about ethics in business. He pointed out many aspects that students need to think about before getting into the labor market. There are also opportunities for Scholars to meet one-on-one with professionals to gain insight in their chosen field.
