Flexibility and individuality are the hallmarks of our program. Students may concentrate electives in business areas or individualize their programs with outside course work in areas as diverse as law, engineering, health services management, public relations, journalism, or computer science. Students can also study abroad through MU's relationships with various foreign universities and selected exchange programs. The college's Career Services Offices serves both undergraduate and graduate students. Students may sign up for on-campus interviews using the Online system, and they may utilize the employer service library.
Workshops teach students to prepare resumes and develop interviewing skills.
Many MU graduates are among recruiters from over 215 national and international companies that conduct for than 3,000 interviews at the college each year. The assistant director of the Career Services Offices is primarily dedicated to MBA placement. Students gain real-world experience in their courses through field trips, plant tours, and visits from business executives. Executives and managers routinely visit the college to lecture in classes and share their career experiences with students, especially in the MBA professional development seminars. The academic programs of the College of Business, established in 1914, were among the first in the nation to be accredited, and the college was also a leader in offering the Ph.D. degree in business-related fields.
