Bucknell Summer Management Institute
The Bucknell Summer Management Institute is an immersive, six-week residential program where students from the College of Arts & Sciences and College of Engineering explore the basic principles of management and earn credits toward a minor in management.
By taking part, you'll take eight classes with Bucknell faculty covering all areas of management taught in the Freeman College. Then you'll put what you've learned into action in an immersive management consulting project with a real organization. You'll finish the program with practical knowledge and management experience you can apply in any field. Upon completion, you'll also earn 3 Bucknell credits and be halfway to earning a minor in management.
Note: The Summer Management Institute will not be running in 2022. We look forward to hosting it again in summer 2023.
