Living Business Leadership Experience (LBLE) is a 3.0 credit-hour elective course that aids students in enhancing their leadership and project management potential within a real-world business environment. LBLE provides students with an opportunity to work in a cross-functional team of graduate and upper-level undergraduate students from across the University to shape, implement, and lead high-impact business initiatives alongside company founders and senior leaders. With the ability to select your company in advance, receive weekly support from a dedicated faculty advisor, and dive headfirst into the challenges of real business, students can expect to receive a supportive and meaningful action-based learning experience.
