Mohammad Naja, a management consultant who runs the foundation's program there, says university students "learn theory, not practical application." To address this gap, foundation students undergo a crash course in business English, then a mini-M.B.A. boot camp devised by the University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business that places them in real-life business situations in which, for instance, accounting graduates perform simulated audits...
