One Ball State Day is becoming a tradition which inspires and unites the University community. During this time of national and world-wide crisis, that has never been truer. The Miller College of Business is incredibly proud of the passion and resilience of our Ball State students. Should you feel compelled to support the next generation of Cardinal alumni, please consider a gift to the Jack Beyerl Student Emergency Aid fund on One Ball State Day. Funds to specifically support Miller students are listed for your consideration as well. From the bottom of our hearts, and on behalf of every student, thank you.
The Department of Management consists of five academic programs, 25 faculty members and 1200 undergraduate students.
Our biggest need is support for student travel to attend professional development opportunities. Each program offers such opportunities to its students but many students do not have the financial means to participate. For example, we encourage our Human Resource Management students to join SHRM (Society of Human Resources Management) and participate in student competitions. Our Hospitality and Food Management students are encouraged to join local chapters (Indiana) of professional associations such as Meeting Planners International. Our Residential Property Management students are invited each year to attend the National Apartment Association conference. Our Entrepreneurial Management students would like to get more involved with events that offer networking opportunities with successful entrepreneurs. Finally, our Business Administration students would benefit from participation at several Academy of Management sponsored events that take place across the Midwest.
