Faculty Internships in Family Business
Abstract
Faculty internships in family business offer potential benefits to faculty, students, and the community by blending academics with real world business. The purpose of the paper is to report how faculty internship experiences in family businesses enhance the goals of continuous improvement of curriculum and research output in a business school. The University of Toledo Center for Family Business embarked on a pilot faculty internship program during the summer of 1998. We detail the back ground for the Stranahan Faculty Program at the University of Toledo, discuss the program implementation, and report the final organizational level assessment.
