[edit] Programs
The Rady School offers a Full-Time MBA program, a FlexMBA program for working professionals, as well as undergraduate and executive education courses. The MBA program's capstone course is known as "Lab-to-Market," over which students spend up to a full year studying (and in some cases implementing) the processes by which entrepreneurs explore, cultivate, and launch new ventures.
[edit] Founding dean
Robert S. Sullivan, Ph.D., was appointed founding dean on January 1, 2003. Prior to his arrival at UCSD, he served as dean of the Kenan-Flagler Business School at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and as dean of the Graduate School of Industrial Administration at Carnegie Mellon University.
[edit] Otterson Hall
Otterson Hall, named "in honor of the late William (Bill) Otterson, co-founder of UCSD CONNECT, in appreciation for his contributions to the San Diego business community and his impact on the region."
The $43M facility comprises 50,000 square feet (5,000 m²) of classrooms, offices, and community space, and will serve as the permanent home to the Rady School. The building provides views overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Salk Institute, Torrey Pines Golf Course, and the Torrey Pines Gliderport. The building will be powered in part by a rooftop solar photovoltaic system.
