ASU MBA students tackle state budget
July 10th, 2010
About 40 executive MBA students from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University learned from state lawmakers when they participated in a two-day mock budget exercise at the Arizona Capitol.
Students played the roles of legislators and lobbyists as they tried to pass their own mock budget on the Senate floor.
Gov. Jan Brewer, Secretary of State Ken Bennett and a representative from the Attorney General’s Office participated in the event, part of a course called “Business and Public Policy cash advance loans.” The curriculum focuses on the intersection of business and the political process.
The exercise was coordinated in partnership with Cox Communications.
