Especially designed for students interested in developing their public speaking skills (or pitching) within entrepreneurial settings, this speaking-intensive two-credit course will help students reflect on, learn from, and speak about their unique experiences as they transition into their next steps after graduation. Using techniques that are effective to focus their message and connect with their audience, students will improve their ability to communicate with confidence, express themselves authentically and inspire others. Students will practice and revise their pitches with different contexts and audiences in mind, and learn more about ways that such spoken presentations are evaluated.
Half-semester course. Note: There is a 12-credit limit on curricular support and non-liberal arts courses that may be counted towards the 128 credits required for graduation.
