I welcome students from across Duke, because I value diversity of experience in the classroom. However, I accommodate students only if
- the student can enrich class discussion, and
- the student is a graduate student, and
- I have not already admitted two other graduate students from the same program (for example, up to two students from the Masters in Engineering Management Program), and
- the course is a daytime MBA course rather than an executive MBA course. Executive MBA courses have the letter “E” after the number, such as HLTH MGMT 718E.
Before class begins
- Get permission. E-mail me requesting permission and describe how you can enrich our class discussion. If I send a message granting permission then you can use that as your official permission.
- Review the syllabus and optional background readings.
- Download the Fuqua Check-In app from the Apple app store or Google Play. The app collects data for registered students.
- Until you are registered, tell the teaching assistant when you attend class.
- Download the class 1 assignment and reading (“preassignment”) on the class web page or pick it up at Fuqua’s Building Management Office.
- Submit the class 1 assignment before class 1. You can access the web site (even if you are on the wait list) at http://fuqua.instructure.com/. Note that Fuqua uses a different site than other parts of Duke.
After class begins
- Please do not use a laptop in the classroom, except for the exams. You may use a tablet computer.
- Pick up the course pack on or after the first day of class.
- If the Martin Luther King holiday falls during the term, then we typically delay Monday classes until Tuesday and Tuesday classes until Wednesday.
- Officially enroll. Fuqua school policy is to give priority to Fuqua students, so non-Fuqua students will be on the wait list until late in the first week, space permitting. For more information about registering at Fuqua see: the Fuqua registrar web page.
