Opportunities Only at Michigan Tech
Make Connections
American Marketing Association member Nicholas Pate attends the largest regional conference for undergraduate marketing students hosted annually by the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater. The experience allows students to develop their professional network with employers during the marketing-specific career fair, attend presentations by industry experts, and participate in competitions.
Go Beyond Business
Just a few years ago Donzell Dixson was a finance student on campus. Today he works at Target Headquarters as a business analyst and is the founder of startup Dixson Dynamics. Michigan Tech prepared him with hands-on experiences for the technical demands of business.
Be the First
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."
Be Known
With small class sizes, you'll get to know your professors—and their K9 pals—by first name. Senior lecturer Roger Woods is well-known for "Office Hours with Dog" held on the front lawn of the Academic Office Building.
Re-Engineer Retirement
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.
Lead Smarter
Caleb Grulke, engineering management major, 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. Grulke credits the multidisciplinary nature of his major—business blended with engineering—and the guidance of his cadre for the opportunity.
Make an Impact
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 aGates Scholar. His leadership on campus makes an impact every day.
Create a Safer Tomorrow
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 SwimSmart Technologies, developed with a faculty mentor, aims to make beaches safer by communicating conditions faster.
Advance What's Next
Michigan Tech DECA students have the tools, resources, and talent to plan and pitch their way to national competition. Collegiate DECA is a program that prepares emerging leaders in the areas of finance, marketing, hospitality, management, and entrepreneurship.
