Our Mission
Foster educational excellence
The CCIB works to attract, retain, encourage, and grow ÃÛÌÒapp business faculty and students by providing ongoing support of scholarship and engagement. Opportunities include faculty and student grants, student research projects, conferences, discussion forums, book clubs, networking opportunities, and more.
Promote experiential learning
Experiential learning, by definition, is the process by which students develop knowledge, skills, and values through direct experiences. The CCIB works alongside ÃÛÌÒapp faculty and staff to identify and execute project-based, experiential learning opportunities and internships for ÃÛÌÒapp business students, which promote the highest level of learning.
Engage the broader business community
Through relationships with local businesses and organizations, the CCIB positively and significantly impacts ÃÛÌÒapp students by allowing them to integrate knowledge and skills learned in the classroom with tangible, hands-on experiences.
