Business Scholars Program

An Opportunity to ExcelThe Business Scholars Program admits high-achieving students following their Freshman year into a series of seminar-style classes that fit every Business major. These research- and application-oriented classes consist of Scholars Program versions of required classes in smaller classroom settings (limited to 30 students), working more closely with Business School faculty. Because of the small class sizes and accelerated (but not necessarily more difficult) coursework, the Scholars Program is able to incorporate many opportunities for interaction with the Milwaukee-area business community, with several social and educational events scheduled each academic year.

Business Scholars 2009-10

The Business Scholars Program has a close partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s Honors College. We encourage those interested in the Business Scholars Program to also consider enrollment in the Honors College.
