Widener University Summer Business Camp



Business Summer Camp

Many high school students remain uncertain about what field of study they will pursue in college until last minute. 

Especially, there is a general lack of knowledge about the career opportunities in business fields and what type of college education will prepare them for these opportunities. In order to help these students make better choices, the Widener University School of Business Administration is preparing four types of educational programs for high school students. Through these programs, we would like to introduce these students to the opportunities that lie ahead in the field of business while at the same time exposing them to some college learning experience. 

Summer Business Camp Offered July 8-11, 2013

During last year's Summer Camp, Dr. Joe Hargadon and members of the SBA faculty conducted a highly interactive event. Each day the students learned how to start a business. They bought supplies, learned about income statements, and got a taste of what it was like to be a young entrepreneur.

Highlights of the week include:
  • Learn about Financial Literacy
  • Design a website
  • Team work at dollar stores to buy supplies for sales at University Center
  • Selling products at Widener University
  • Bowling in Teams
  • Tour of PPL Park to see where the Philadelphia Union MLS team plays
  • Presentations to parents and quests

Registration: Please RSVP by June 14th 2013
