BUSI600 Pre-Skills Introduction
Prior to joining your classmates at Opening Residency next month, we would like to level out your skills in math, Excel, and writing across your incoming cohort. The Canvas course for BUSI600 is now available and this site has the MBA Workshops and Skill Building Pre-Skills you need to be successful in your program. You will see the graded assignments listed in each of the workshop tabs. The graded assignments must be completed by August 19 at midnight.
Depending on your academic strengths, some modules may challenge you and take more time than others to complete (expect up to 40 hours for the math bootcamp and 30 hours for Excel if you are unfamiliar with the concepts). These skills will be needed from your first semester at UMD Smith and these modules will build your confidence.
