Founded in February of 1959, the Undergraduate Business Council (UBC) is a representative student organization for undergraduates at the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin. To learn more, click on the links below.
Since its creation, UBC’s responsibilities in undergraduate education have expanded and taken on the additional role of student governance. In the past, the UBC limited its role by providing only professional and academic programs for students to attend. Today, we continue that trend and additionally, we vocalize and advocate undergraduate business student issues to the administration.
Our current hallmark programs include Parent’s Day and the VIP Lecture Series (Views, Insights, and Perspectives). We also continue to reinvent ourselves with new programs. This year we added a national conference called the McCombs Student Empowerment Conference and Company Field Trip which allows McCombs’ top students a chance to visit eminent companies across the nation.
Through our programs and activities, the Undergraduate Business Council is dedicated to creating a better environment for all BBAs as they work toward graduation.
The Undergraduate Business Council (UBC) logo has three rings representing three components of the McCombs School of Business: the students, the faculty, and the Undergraduate Business Council. The left ring represents the faculty; the right represents the students. The open ring that links the two represents the Undergraduate Business Council.
Our job is to unite the faculty and students in hopes of creating a better business school. Because we never feel like our job is done or complete and because we are always open to suggestions and criticisms, the third ring remains open.
