Trivia Tuesday: Stanford GSB’s September Seminars
It’s time again for Trivia Tuesday! This week we’ll take a look at September Seminars, a special academic opportunity offered to second-year MBA students at the Stanford GSB.
“Before the start of Autumn Quarter classes, second-year students have the option of returning to campus early to participate in small one- or two-week seminars. These intensive September Seminars give students a chance to explore a focused topic with a faculty member and a small group of classmates. Seminars cover a range of subjects, with recent topics including “Poverty, Entrepreneurship, and Development,” “How to Tell a Story,” “Sustainability as Market Strategy” and “Intellectual Property: Financial and Strategic Management.”
“September Seminars are held for three to four hours daily and center on a specific subject for which there might not be enough material or sufficient interest to warrant a full elective course. Because they give faculty members a chance to share the details of their latest research or teach students about a subject that might fall outside of their area of expertise, these seminars are seen as a mutually beneficial opportunity for student and instructor. Second-year students can earn up to four units of credit, the equivalent of one full course, through completion of these seminars.”
