Walton MBA Internship Showcase is Over

Our 6 finalists in the MBA Internship Showcase competed on Friday. They did such a great job and I am very proud of them. The winner will be announced tonight at the Networking Event. I know who won but I can't tell yet. Here are pictures of Friday's competition. We also had 8 students from the new MBA class that will start in January present. They came to learn more about the internship process and to get a heads up for the competition next year.

















Tonight's event is very important for our MBAs. Tomorrow is the Walton College's Business Career Fair. All employers who will be attending tomorrow's fair have been invited to the Networking event tonight. Our MBA students will be present with their poster. This gives the employers an opportunity to browse through and speak to them about their summer internship experience. Connections could be made that may result in future employment opportunities.
