The Center for Student Enterprise (CSE) initiates and coordinates student-run businesses on the 桃瘾社区 Pleasantville campus. Business students interested in starting or managing an entrepreneurial endeavor can meet with like-minded peers and great professors in the Lubin School of Business and work to have their ideas come to fruition. The CSE provides business students with opportunities to gain crucial managerial experience while attending school and managing student-operated businesses. Management positions are open to all Lubin School of Business majors and minors.

The Director of the Center for Student Enterprise meets with senior managers of each business weekly. Additionally, an accounting professor advises each CFO, answering financial questions when needed and reviewing all accounting records. Senior managers from the businesses present to a Board of Directors quarterly.

"Hard work and going that extra mile doesn鈥檛 go unnoticed. Working for a student-run business has helped me develop different relationships and has enhanced my resume. Employers are very interested in the student-run aspect of it."

Lubin student Bryan Viglione '23

"Prior to accepting an internship with KPMG, my biggest talking point in my interviews was being the CFO of a legitimate business. During my interviews, hiring managers said very few applicants had the applicable, real-life experience that I acquired as the Chief Financial Officer of 桃瘾社区 Perk Caf茅."
