mission & culture
"The MMB program strengthens our portfolio, allowing us to prepare students with in-depth knowledge of both leading edge science and the “business” of science. It is a combination that industry executives value so much that they invest personal time and expertise to serve as mentors and work with students on real-world cases. Such university/industry collaboration is essential for continued innovation and economic growth in North Carolina."
