ACTIVITY HIGHLIGHTS

The College of Business places a strong emphasis on building a career culture and gaining networking experience among our students by hosting various events, some of which are part of our Professional Development Program. This program is designed to guide students through preparing for a successful career from starting out as a freshman to finding a job as a junior, senior or graduate student. Here are a few highlights of the events that took place this Fall.

Back To Business

Hosted by College of Business clubs, business students were welcomed back to school with a BBQ, games, prizes and the chance to dunk their professors and the Dean in a dunk tank. Students also got the chance to visit club booths and chat with club leaders and members to learn more about each organization and enter to win a raffle prize.

THE DR. BILL PHILLIPS MEMORIAL ETIQUETTE DINNER

Guided by an etiquette expert, this dinner provided students a chance to network and learn about proper etiquette when it comes to interview meals and other business meals as an industry professional.

“HOW TO ACE YOUR JOB INTERVIEW & WIN THE JOB” WORKSHOP

New this year to Professional Development Month, this workshop provided students with the chance to learn more about what it takes to ace a job interview.

BUSINESS FACULTY VERSUS STUDENTS AT MEN’S BASKETBALL
