| Student Comments |
“I'd have to say it was eye opening. My original thoughts of industry and how the business world works were significantly changed after going through the courses.”
"I'm starting a company as we speak. I always thought I would lead a company. CET opened my eyes that I could do it from an early age."
“(Without CET), I would have never started my own company. And never would have gotten a job at Google."
“ From the readings, to the team building exercises in class, to our consulting projects -- it was a tough class but I learned a whole lot that I have already put to use and that I will use in my future job."
“The most practical, hands-on course I've taken... Amazing." |
