Meet the Team

Through two required career courses, career workshops, events, and one-on-one coaching sessions, we instill professionalism and workplace best practices in our students. Upon graduation, our students are prepared to hit the ground running and use their skills throughout their entire career.

 

We also support our graduates and employers too. From posting a job or internship opportunity to hosting student and alumni networking events across the country, our relationships transcend the on-campus experience.

 

We've (literally) met with every single business student. So, you’d be hard pressed to find someone in Copeland Hall that we haven’t helped. And we’re ready to help you too.
