Summer is winding down-MBA students prepping for internship showcase

Summer is coming to a close. Fall classes begin on Monday, August 24th. As I have mentioned previously, Walton MBA students do an internship over the summer. They are receiving 3 hours of credit. In order to receive their credit, they will be competing in an Internship Showcase. All students who completed an internship will do a presentation and a poster. Walton and corporate judges will choose the top 3 or 4 and these students will compete in a final round. The winner is announced at the Networking Social on September 14th (the evening before the Walton Career Fair).

This is a great opportunity for our MBA students to showcase what they did over the summer and to network with some of our local corporate partners. Newly admitted MBA students (who will begin in January 2010) will be invited to the final round of competition and to the Networking Social. This gives our new students a sneak peak at what they will be doing next summer.
