Connect With Employers

Employers appreciate connecting with faculty and staff to share information about their organizations and industries. These connections may help faculty and staff for classroom presentations or site visits.

Engage With the Professional Enhancement Program (PrEP)

PrEP is a series of four one-credit hour pass/no pass courses designed to develop confident, professional, and connected students for lifelong career success. PrEP’s unique and innovative four-year curriculum prepares business students not only to successfully find an internship or full-time job, but succeed in their career and personal life after college. All students who enter the College of Business are required to take and pass the four PrEP courses.
