“SBA provides many opportunities for both academic and personal growth. It is important that the skills we learn in different business courses can be later on applied to professional life, and not just in academia. With the help of various student organizations within SBA, we, as students, can take part in different extracurricular activities, conferences and seminars, as well as find support and advice when needed. Moreover, the Internship and Placement office provides excellent internship and career opportunities that can help students navigate the job market and become successful members of the business community.” – Anna Terekhova, a sophomore majoring in Management Information Systems
