Description:

HBS Summer Venture in Management Program 2008 The Summer Venture in Management Program (SVMP) is a week of HBS instruction that exposes high-potential college students in the summer between their junior and senior year to the HBS MBA experience and the variety of opportunities a degree in management can afford. Participants from diverse backgrounds spend the week on campus living the MBA student experience - attending classes, analyzing case studies, and debating management issues with peers and faculty. This unique educational experience, in combination with a summer internship at a sponsoring company or organization, gives participants a broader understanding of the challenges business leaders face, the innumerable opportunities that exist in management, and the impact they can have on their community and the world through leadership. The application for the 2008 Summer Venture in Management Program is now available online <https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=hbs-sum> . In order to attend, a completed application is due May 9, 2008 at 5:00pm EST (Boston time). The program will take place from June 21-27, 2008. Consistent with the objective of promoting educational diversity and opportunity in business leadership, criteria considered among others, are whether the applicant is: * the first family member to attend college; * a member of a group that is currently underrepresented in business schools and corporate America (e.g. African-American, Latino, Native American, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, or Transgender); * from a family with little business education or experience; * from a school whose graduates do not typically attend a top-tier university (e.g., attends a community college as part of a four-year degree or attends a predominantly minority college).
