The academy will consist of five 60-minute sessions. Each session will be highly interactive. All ECS students are welcome. ... No advanced preparation is required and no homework will be assigned. (This will not add to your already crazy pandemic-fueled workload.) The sessions will be facilitated by ECS's entrepreneur in residence, Dr. Atul Teckchandani. Upon completion, you will receive a certificate (signed by Dean Barua and Dr. Atul Teckchandani) that can be added to your resume and just might, in certain lighting conditions, be mistaken for a diploma. There will be an opportunity to apply for scholarship support. The date and time of each session is TBD, with a goal of finding a day and time that works for as many students as possible.
