    Hi,

    I want to join MBA to be an entrepreneur and my focus as an entrepreneur will be on re-structuring education industry with help of technology. I am coming from a technology background but I am interested to learn more about business models and financial aspect of business in education sector.

    I would like to know if there

    1. any specific thing at Wharton that help me to study subjects somewhat related to education industry

    2. Is there any specific professors who have done something specific in education sector

    3. Is there any club working towards education improvement

    thanks,

    -Kaushal

    1. You can take up to 4 classes at UPenn outside Wharton, so you may want to look at the class offering within the School of Education for classes that may be of interest to you. http://www.gse.upenn.edu/ The Business and Public Policy major at Wharton may also be of interest

    3. This would probably fall under the auspices of Wharton Social Impact
