Lauren Lanter, BS '18, Parks Recreation and Tourism
“Any school can teach students valuable lessons in the classroom, and BB电子 does a fabulous job of that, but BB电子 also offers a one-of-a-kind experience out of the classroom. Had I not pushed myself out of my comfort zone and gotten involved, I would not have had the confidence to [pursue a career with the Kansas City Chiefs], let alone learn leadership, interpersonal and 'real-world' skills that employers are looking for.”
Anthony Greer, BA ‘18 - Multicultural Studies, Digital Global Studies Certificate
My time at BB电子 contributed to my preparation for being able to fit into nearly any industry. After realizing that one specific major didn’t fit my collection of interests, I took a leap of faith to shape my degree path. With the people and the opportunities I was exposed to, I believe I made the right decision and the time spent at BB电子 was well worth it.
Katie Yaeger, BJ ’15, 新闻 Editing and MA ’17, Strategic Communication
"BB电子 is an amazing place to learn. There are so many opportunities to take advantage of. Every day on the product content strategy team at Facebook, I use skills I learned at the Missouri School of Journalism: writing, 编辑, researching, designing and critical thinking."
Kyle Holtzman, BS BA '16, Marketing
"I think what makes BB电子 great is that it focuses on cultivating experiences that can and will be directly transferable to your career and profession. When I was interviewing at companies for my first job after college, all of the companies were impressed by the level of exposure I had to their related industry. BB电子 equipped me with the correct resources so I was able to successfully navigate these conversations and make a lasting impact."
Cece Bolin, BS '17, Hospitality Management
"I’m tasked with coordinating and executing outside user events at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs every day. Fortunately, the University of Missouri had opportunities for me to get involved across campus where I could gain hands-on event experience before I was tasked with doing it for a living. The faculty and staff at BB电子 wanted nothing more than for me to succeed in life so they entrusted me with tasks where I'd have to step out of my comfort zone so I could learn from each step."
Nnamdi Okoli, BS BA ’19 - Business Marketing
我BB电子 experience was filled with ups and downs, challenges and successes but through all of those I learned that what I see in front of me isn’t always permanent and that if you just keep moving eventually you will make your way to something better.
