Large enough to lead. Small enough to care. In Michigan Tech’s College of Business, our culture is steeped in science, technology, engineering, and math, preparing business-smart, STEM-savvy students to create the future.
The Business Leaders Tomorrow Needs

A Community Like No Other
As a first-generation college student, finance and accounting dual major Marco Marquez didn't have a network to guide him through college life. He made connections quickly on campus with classmates who became friends: "They helped me become the best student and person I can be."
Tomorrow Needs Experiences
Business Huskies go inside regionally based companies like Stormy Kromer—known worldwide—to get a firsthand look at brand management, supply chain operations, and company culture.
Tomorrow Needs Experiences
Students participating in the Economics Club compete and win national competitions earning trips to Washington, DC, to meet policymakers and present their ideas for the future of retirement.
Tomorrow Needs Smart Leaders
Caleb Grulke, engineering management major in the College of Business, is the number-one ranked Army ROTC cadet in the nation. As battalion commander of the 1st Arctic Warriors Battalion of the Michigan Tech Army ROTC, Cadet Lt. Col.

Tomorrow Needs Opportunities
In addition to being a Leading Scholar and Impact Scholar, accounting and management dual major Jaylen Body has been selected from 35,000 students across the nation as a Gates Scholar. His leadership on campus makes an impact every day.
Tomorrow Needs Technology that Saves
TechMBA® alumnus Jake Soter '20 observed that flag-warning systems at public beaches weren't updated right away, and swimmers weren't getting important information on days with strong rip-currents. His innovation SwimSmart Technologies, developed with a faculty mentor, aims to make beaches safer by using technology to communicate conditions faster.
Tomorrow Needs Opportunities
"Our students stand out because we put them in teams beginning with their first year. They have more collaboration and conflict resolution skills than the people they are competing with for jobs. That's what recruiters tell me."
Tomorrow Needs Opportunities
