Professional Development
At the Price College of Business, we take professional development to a higher level. For first year students, beginning with MBA Prelude Week and continuing through the start of summer internships, we provide a broad variety of “soft skills” development, define important professional traits that recruiters are seeking and help students meet the requirements essential for launching a successful business career.
For second year students, our Student Support Center offers preparation for the final job search and re-entry to the workforce. Our delivery includes perspectives from numerous outside speakers, alumni and friends of the program. Topics include balancing work/life, starting a company, conducting effective meetings and delivering a poignant introduction as students increase their lists of contacts. Practical advice is the key and we are focused very pragmatically on optimum employment opportunities for our graduates. From self-assessment to salary negotiation to how to work in groups, we cover it all.
