The
purpose of the School of Management's PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC) Scholars
Program is to attract superior students and challenge them to reach their
full academic potential. Honors students augment normal SOM requirements
in mathematics, the sciences, humanities, the social sciences and management
with special opportunities to enhance their written and oral communication
and leadership skills. To facilitate verbal communication, scholars are required to be an active member of the SOM Toastmasters Club for a
minimum of six semesters. Writing skills are enhanced through an additional
required writing emphasis course.
|
The
program is also designed to facilitate interaction with both faculty and
other scholars. Students attend honors seminars each semester in
which guest speakers from the community as well as from the School of
Management will lead discussions on current issues in management. Completion
of the PWC Scholars Program is noted on the student's official transcript
and through an honors certificate issued by the School of Management.

Admission
to the PWC Scholars Programs is competitive and is limited to ten percent
of the entering class for both accounting and management. Students are admitted at the time of admission to the University as part of the Binghamton University Scholars Program.
