Student Experience

The Great Capstone Case Competition
 

We are providing students with experiences in and out of the classroom that contribute to a unique college culture.


Student Organizations

Business-related student organizations (or associations) provide a voice for business students in the College of Business Administration.


The #UCFBusiness Business Leadership Council

The Business Leadership Council (BLC) is comprised of the leadership executive committee members from all of the Registered Student Organizations in the UCF College of Business. The purpose of the BLC is to provide a platform for cross collaboration, communication and problem solving for these groups, so they can improve operations, marketing, membership and contributions to and for the students. The BLC also provides a platform for leadership development and new opportunities for students to learn and serve.

Some of the engaging experiences include:

 

Career Professionalism Classes

This is the course which every professional will say; “I wish they offered that when I was in school.” The unique series of classes provides students with instruction, networking, lectures and opportunity to attend events which provide knowledge, skills and abilities to develop a career plan and secure a professional position after graduation. Unlike traditional “lecture-based” classes, students will be asked to engage in events outside the classroom, work on sourcing jobs and career opportunities, be introduced to their career coaches and engage with professionals through designated programs.
