Study Abroad, Minors, Involvement on Campus

Our last few classes together will be focused on opportunities within Poole, across campus, and beyond.  We will specifically focus on study abroad programs, minors that fit well with management degrees and how to get involved in campus organizations.  There will be several guest speakers joining us, as well.  We are lucky to have the Early Career Network Group from GSK back to discuss the transition from student to professional and interviewing tips.  As the semester draws to a close, we will also look forward to planning for future coursework.  We will also welcome all professional mentors back on December 2nd to reunite with their SNGs.  It is sure to be an exciting few weeks.

SNG Events

The students are busy attending their second SNG event of the semester.  The professional and student mentors have been quite creative in planning activities.  Here is a recap of a recent event:

This past Monday, October 24th the international student network group and I went to Neomonde Bakery located off of Hillsborough. We had the manager, Sam Saleh, speak to us about his travels from Lebanon. He spoke about how he started his business and what he does now to keep it thriving. He also explained the differences in cultures and that being proactive and responsible is a major part of success. He was a really great speaker and the students responded to him very well. It was a successful event!

This week in class, we will continue our diversity discussion - focusing on how we can develop skills to be inclusive leaders.
