Learning from Experienced and Innovative Faculty

The theory is an important part of learning, but what makes our faculty so great is they’ve put theory into practice: in their own businesses, in corporations, in nonprofits, in the real world. And, they’re ready to share their trials and errors and successes with you. They stay relevant in their fields by seeking industry partnerships and learning best practices. Be guided by faculty in the Southeast Innovation Challenge, Start-Up Pitch Competition, or an Artificial Intelligence Hackathon. Plus, the college partners with a St. Louis-based Corporate Advisory Board and members of area Chambers of Commerce to keep its curriculum current. Whatever path you take, you’ll be mentored from the time you start with us till you complete a capstone project.
