This week the college will be in peak engagement mode hosting a full slate of events geared at helping business students build their networks, meet alumni and learn about potential career paths and job opportunities from our corporate partners.
This afternoon in The EXCHANGE our alum and Dean’s Advisory Board member Jorge Amaro ’13MBA, CEO and founder of Ai3, will sit down for a fireside chat with our new Director of The EXCHANGE Justin Barwick as part of our Grant Thornton Speaker Series.
Tuesday is Darden Day in the College where students will have the chance to hear from marketing, finance and supply chain leaders at one of the most recognizable and successful brands in full-service dining. Visit https://business.ucf.edu for the full list of Darden Day events and to register for a session.
On Thursday, the college takes over The Venue for our Spring Invitational – the exclusive internship and career fair for Business Knights featuring 60+ employers with internships and positions. Business students must qualify to attend the exclusive event by getting a resume review, attending an Invitational Qualifier session through the college’s Office of Professional Development or earning a Golden Ticket from a faculty member. Don’t have your Golden Ticket yet? Email cbaemployerrelations@ucf.edu to find out how you can qualify.
And for good measure, we’re hosting a Dean’s Speaker Series on Wednesday morning featuring UCF finance professor Kevin Mullally. He’ll share which factors matter most when predicting investment performance and why you might want to find out what age they started kindergarten before hiring your next mutual fund manager. Join us at the Citrus Club in Downtown Orlando for breakfast at 7:30. I promise you’ll learn a thing or two and you’ll love the bacon. Register here.
