James R. Swartz Fellows

Tepper MBA students in the Entrepreneurship in Organizations Track are not only members of the track, but are also named James R. Swartz Entrepreneurial Fellows. The fellows program is the result of a gift from Tepper graduate and famed venture capitalist James R. Swartz, co-founder of the venture capital firm Accel Partners.

The fellows selection process began in December 2006 and included an application and interview process which ended in Janurary with the announcement of the fellows. Supported by the entrepreneurship faculty and the fellows from the prior MBA class, the new fellows have demonstrated an entrepreneurial edge. The fellows program includes a mentored internship, numerous networking opportunities, and a leadership focused program and capstone project in the second year.
