Project Based Learning

Watch the video from when Anu Aiyengar was Global Co-Head of Mergers and Acquisitions at JP Morgan Chase & Co., where she gives her own reasons why it’s so important to ignite girls’ interest in finance while in high school.

NYC students had the opportunity to work on a real M&A Case Study at J.P. Morgan with female teams of junior and senior analysts.

RTSWS offers hands-on curriculum where students learn problem solving, teamwork, adaptability, effective communication and time management.
