EX 997 - Washington Campus

The seminars at the Washington campus emphasize governmental process and the range of considerations and constraints which bear upon the decisions of policymakers. Corporate executives and future business leaders examine the working of the legislative, regulatory, judicial, and executive functions of governemrnt in order to understand more clearly how they, as managers, can build the critical public policy dimension into daily operations and corporate strategy. The faculty of the Washington campus is drawn from government, business, the press, and academia. It includes members of Congress and their staffs, senior administrative officials, lobbyists, journalists, noted scholars, and corporate executives. As companies expand their markets abroad, they need employees who are globally aware, flexible to changes, and able to understand various social and buisness cultures. Therefore, it is important that students be exposed to a variety of perspectives on the real-life issues of doing business in different countries.
