You’ll move through your core classes with a group of around 80 students you can lean on, learn from, and navigate Ross with. Each year, a carefully crafted Signature Learning Experience (SLE) adds another level of engagement to your coursework. The Ross Integrative Semester, for example, is the third-year SLE that highlights a business theme you’ll cover in every class, and concludes with a week-long entrepreneurial challenge where you can showcase what you’ve learned.
