LeBow Launch is a two-day introductory leadership program designed to provide incoming LeBow College of Business first-year students with a head start on college by allowing them to explore key business concepts and sharpen leadership skills that will prepare them to tackle the coursework ahead.

Skills essential to success in business include strong leadership and analytical skills combined with the ability to communicate effectively. Students will participate in professional development and team-building activities, all while building community and exploring their new home away from home.

There is a $325 charge to cover meals, program materials and experiences. Students who have room assignments for the fall term will move into the residence halls Thursday, Sept. 13, between 8 and 11 a.m. There is no additional charge for early move-in.

NOTE: If you plan to live on campus and participate in this course, you must move in during this time.
