Updated: Monday, September 14th, 2009
The Zell Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business is celebrating ten years of prepping students for business careers and spearheading new trends in business education.
The top business school has made many innovations in the industry over the past decade, including the implementation of the first multidisciplinary class called “Innovative New Business Design.” This class encourages students pursuing business degrees, PhDs and graduate degrees in engineering to work together on technology commercialization.
This cross-industry education “has served as a resource for similar entrepreneurial programs launched” at other schools at the University of Michigan, said Tom Kinnear, executive director of the institute.
"The next 10 years will bring tremendous change in the area of entrepreneurial education," he added. "We are excited to forge ahead in the areas of clean [technology], sustainable investment, social venture creation and tech commercialization."
PayScale.com, a research company, says that average salaries for holders of MBA degrees ranged from $73,510 to $171,583 in 2008, depending on the field, position and years of experience.
