Engage with Industry Experts
Industry experts participating in our corporate partner program have year-round access to our students and faculty and give input on how to make our curriculum strong and relevant to today’s industry standards. In turn, this best prepares our students to enter industry jobs.
Our forum brings together business’s greatest analytical minds with our top-ranked faculty and students to derive new insights and find new applications for data. Other ways corporate partner industry experts may participate with our students include:
- Capstone Projects: Our Premier Corporate Partners have first consideration in our capstone projects. Our master’s students generate business insights from data sets belonging to our corporate partners.
- Speak to a Club: Inspire the next generation of business leaders by speaking to one of our student organizations. You can discuss a particular area of expertise or give general tips for success in your organization and beyond.
- Speak in a Class: Join us at the Haslam College of Business for a day to share with our students and faculty how your company uses analytics to drive better business decisions. By sharing your time, you will be building a collaborative relationship between your company and the university, giving you the opportunity for earlier access to pivotal research and graduates with outstanding skill sets.
