Entrepreneurship@Tuck

Hello blog readers,

This is the first time I am meeting you here. I am a T’12, and needless to say, very satisfied with my decision to come to Tuck. It seems ages ago when I started the process of finding a school that would fit my goals. Just to give you a bit on my background - I studied Engineering in undergrad and Apparel and Textile design in my postgraduate program; I had worked with a for-profit company and a couple of non-profit organizations, and most recently, had started my own business before coming to Tuck. When I was applying to B-school, I wanted a top school, however I wanted a small class size school, where I would have the opportunity to know all my classmates well and experience the diversity. I also wanted a school that would allow me to explore various opportunities and help me build my next business. I came to Tuck for Entrepreneurship.

Till now you have heard about so many things that Tuck excels at, but I thought to specifically share my experiences with Entrepreneurship resources at Tuck. Tuck is known for its General Management program, and I believe it is a great tool for Entrepreneurs as well. When starting a company, an entrepreneur needs to work with limited resources, and thus general management tools prove very valuable at that time. In the winter term, students are allowed to take one elective along with four other core courses, if they want; one elective choice offered was Introduction to Entrepreneurship. I am enrolled in this class, and it has been an extremely fulfilling experience so far. The course is designed to provide a global introduction to the process of turning an idea into a successful startup enterprise. The purpose of this course is to refine and validate your idea. Once we submit the idea, the other student teams do a due diligence review on another start-up team in the class and provide a written recommendation to a hypothetical investor. I have been working on my next business plan in this class, and this course has provided me a platform that is very difficult to get outside of Tuck. The due-diligence on my business idea is due sometime next week, and I will keep you informed what happens.

This has been a long introduction post, so I will stop here, but I would tell you more about Entrepreneurship@Tuck next time. So watch this space for more information about Entrepreneurship at Tuck.

Ciao!

Resulta curioso que gracias a los blogs y a los foros podamos conocer todas las experiencias desde dentro. Lo malo es que nadie va a hablar mal de nada por la cuenta q les trae

No hay más que leer el post IE vs IESE vs ESADE que echa humo.... premio si encuentras a alguien que no le guste su escuela :P

Hombre tienes que defender la bandera ocn la que te ha tocado cargar porque de ello depende tu imagen al fin y al cabo. Lo bueno es que da vidilla al foro. Imaginate los profes diciendoles meteros todos a votar a club MBA que esos de ESADE nos estan petando

Bueno, en los foros y en los blogs es difícil encontrar una crítica, pero cuando hablas en persona si pones atención puedes entrever las quejas que cada uno tiene de su escuela: que está en mitad de la nada, que se ven un poco solos preparando los procesos de selección, que las instalaciones son mejorables...

En cuanto a emprendimiento, cuando fui a Tuck tuve la oportunidad de conocer a dos graduados que están intentando montar su propia empresa y a los que les está costando bastante. Llevan año y medio dejandose la piel en el proyecto y no acaban de arrancar (estas cosas pasan), pero lo que me llamó la atención fue el apoyo que tienen desde Tuck aún casi dos años después de graduarse. Siguen en contacto con mucha gente allí, les facilitan local e intentan mover las redes de contactos para ayudarles a conseguir entrevistas con posibles clientes.

Ah! y muchas gracias por el post rid!! ;)
