Clubs and Organizations
Within the School of Business, we seek to provide an educational experience that will launch graduates successfully regardless of the professional path they choose. The unique blending of liberal and professional arts--including applied learning, internships and opportunities for study abroad--prepare students for leadership positions whether it be in management, marketing, small or new business development, finance, management of information systems, advertising, and contemporary journalism.
A strong line up of co-curricular activities within the School provide varied opportunities for students in Business to get involved outside of class, build esprit d'corps within their programs and hone the leadership skills which are critical to their own personal and professional growth.
Business sponsored activities include:
▪ The Entrepreneur Club - The School of Business is proud to announce its newest club, The Entrepreneur Club.
