BBA Career Networking Speed Dating
This event is one of our most popular career networking happenings, and occurs once a semester. Experienced MIS professionals "speed date" with MIS majors and minors, as well as undeclared freshmen and sophomores. For 10 minutes each round, recruiters are able to share with students more information about their company, including internships, full-time employment and corporate culture. This is a great opportunity for companies to connect their recruiters to students interested in or already studying MIS. See what you missed at the last Career Networking Event.

MIS 333K, Business Web Development, is one of the toughest classes in the MIS major. It culminates with an intensive 6-week, team web-development project. Many students say the K project is the most challenging assignment of their college careers. When the project is presented in class, sponsoring companies are recognized for their support. Students are reminded of that support throughout the project and at the awards presentation.
