Widener University’s School of
Business Administration will host a free academic workshop for high school
girls. The daylong workshop is designed to simulate life as a business student
and give participants an idea of career opportunities in the field. Interested
participants may choose to attend the workshop on either Thursday, February 21
or Friday, February, 22. The workshop will begin with registration at 8:30 a.m.
and end with lunch and an optional campus tour at 1 p.m. on both days. Most
activities will take place in Widener’s Lathem Hall, East 13th and
Potter streets, Chester, Pa.
Workshop participants will have
opportunities to interact with School of Business Administration faculty,
students and successful alumnae. They’ll participate in collegiate-style
lectures that address different concentrations within the field and take part
in interactive activities focused on networking, overcoming adversity in the
workplace and honing leadership skills.
An optional parent program will run
simultaneously to address topics of admissions, curriculum and financial aid.
Interested participants – parents
and high school students – should contact Jessica Hoopes, assistant dean for
relationship development, at jfhoopes@widener.edu
or 610-499-4304
to register.
