Business Partnerships

Overview

A priority for the College of Business is to provide our students with opportunities to make meaningful connections with the business community and to ensure the College of Business is providing area businesses with the type of new employees who would thrive within their company. This can be accomplished by creating business partnerships with a variety of businesses in Northwest Ohio. Not only will this benefit the students, but it will also be beneficial to the business community.
