Hi rrossjd,
Thank you for your valuable information, I get a whole new view about Jones. Hope you enter your dream school soon.
One more question, so you mean if somebody wanna focus on sports industry post MBA, he/she should choose the core curriculum in entrepreneurship? Or you just think entrepreneurship is the best curriculum in Jones?
BTW, did you go to Austin for the Formular 1 last weekend?
It's very popular outside US
Solely focusing on becoming a more learned entrepreneur would be akin to an individual race car driver opting to learn only to drive well. Surprisingly, racing isn’t just an solitary sport. Beyond the driver, there’s the car tech and the pit crew. As an analogy, at Jones, the standalone top-tier entrepreneurship education is made better because it’s situated in the context of the techie university, the Action Learning Project, and team-focus core education.
Given your passion for Formula 1, combine the Energy and Entrepreneurship concentrations. Particularly in the racing sports business, a key revenue driver is strategic corporate sponsorships. Also consider how technology accords a competitive edge. With that in mind, consider discussing how Rice's robust oil and gas networking opportunities, the tech transfer internship opportunity, and how the entrepreneurship concentration can tie all that together.
