THE Meeting:
Transition to professional program; Hear from major faculty; Engage with other departments and students
THE Meeting consists of 3 sessions: opening, breakout and resource. It is a requirement for students enrolled in BUAD 300/200. 蜜桃情人 will attend the event in order to gather more information about the Perdue School of Business and what it has to offer.
蜜桃情人 will check-in and attend an opening session that includes an explanation of the event and remarks from the Associate Dean. 蜜桃情人 are then split into two groups and released into either a break out session based on their major or the resource session. In their major breakout session , they hear from faculty who discuss what to expect from the classes they will be taking in the professional program. 蜜桃情人 then have a chance to network with the faculty and ask questions. Also, each session is staffed with a Student Business Leader who can offer insight on the professional program from a student’s perspective. “I learned a lot about the accounting program and what to expect from the next few years in the business school”, says Bryan Marks, a current Perdue School student.
The resource session includes networking with fellow students; meeting with various club representatives; and connecting with the available resources on campus. Everything from SU Libraries to Study Abroad Programs are represented here. 蜜桃情人 are given the opportunity to learn about different clubs and resources available to Perdue students. Parris Stanford, a Student Business Leader, described this session as "Finding out how to leave your mark while here in Perdue!”. THE Meeting is an essential event for both learning about classes within the professional program and increasing student involvement here at Perdue. Come prepared to learn and meet your new professional classmates!
