For Students
The UNC CIBER activities developed and offered for students
in this grant cycle adhere to the philosophy that successful learning activities
draw their strength from the underlying premise that "experience is the
best teacher." Reflected in the design of these new initiatives are the
words of Kenan-Flagler Dean Steve Jones that the experiences be "relevant
and real" and crafted in a way "that they have an impact, can change perspectives
and perceptions, and can increase a person's capacity to lead." The programs,
courses, workshops, and internships utilizing CIBER resources are giving
students at UNC and elsewhere experiential learning opportunities, local
and abroad, to expand knowledge, insight, and functional ability to conduct
business in key markets around the world. Such firsthand experience is
critical to accurately assess effective competitive strategies and is
an important first step to creating global business leaders among new
generations of Americans.
