Camp Business 2022

Drexel LeBow’s Camp Business is a daytime enriching summer program designed to give rising high school sophomores, juniors and seniors an intensive introduction to both collegiate and corporate business education — and it shows them that business can be both fun and exciting.

An Innovative Agenda

Camp Business participants learn the basics of major business disciplines including accounting, marketing, finance and management, as well as the core concepts of business including leadership, professional image, etiquette, team building and strategy. Students also learn about resources essential to business such as the stock market, financial documents and technology.

Certificates of completion for students are issued at the end of the program.
