If you have submitted official copies of all your transfer work, you can expect to see it entered by the end of your first term in attendance. Once entered, it will be viewable in DegreeWorks.

How will a major within the 黑料传送门 School of Business help me get into law school?

A key mission of our School of Business – across all 5 majors – is to equip our students with 鈥渟trong quantitative, analytical, and communication skills.鈥� That鈥檚 what we do in the School of Business, and that鈥檚 exactly what law schools are looking for.

Law school admissions officers agree that your actual choice of major is less important than whether, over your undergrad career, you took progressively more challenging courses in an area that interested you and whether the experience developed your skills in research, reading, writing, communications, problem solving and critical thinking.

As UB Law School鈥檚 Admissions Office has said, 鈥淗ere鈥檚 the secret: there鈥檚 no undergraduate major that will guarantee entry into OR rejection from the school, nor assure your success once you get in. Your choice of major will not improve performance on the LSAT, the bar exam, or in a courtroom. Bottom line: If you鈥檙e planning to go to law school after undergrad, choose the major that best fits your goals and/or interests.鈥�

The subject matter knowledge you gain from studying business-related subjects will give you valuable tools to use someday in practicing law of any type. Plus, you鈥檒l always have credentials and tools that will prove very useful if you decide to delay or forego attending law school.

So, if you are considering law school someday and have an interest in studying Accounting, Business Administration, Data Analytics, Economics or Finance come join us.

Post-Covid developments in the global economy have resulted in many businesses finding it increasingly difficult to meet their talent needs. This has created a favorable environment for skilled, eager graduates to find opportunities aligned with their interests. With this backdrop in mind, students are encouraged to plan early and develop a job search strategy before graduation (ideally prior to the start of their senior year) that includes at minimum the following steps:

• Achieving clarity on what kinds of positions they prefer, what industries interest them most, what kind of organization they would like to work in, and where they want to be geographically.
• Researching potential employers, particularly in industries and geographies the student is most interested in.
• Finalizing a professionally formatted, detailed, and critiqued resume and cover letter
• Attaining competency with the numerous resources, connections, and events available to 黑料传送门 students to help them uncover job opportunities

School of Business students are strongly encouraged to work in tandem with the Jeff Donlon (jdonlon@geneseo.edu) and / or the Career Design Center to learn about the resources available to them and augment their job search efforts.

The 黑料传送门 School of Business has a very active and engaged alumni base. The importance of frequent networking with 黑料传送门 alumni and businesses with connections to the college cannot be understated, especially when it comes to finding an internship or a job after graduation. Students are encouraged to engage in proactive alumni outreach and networking throughout their academic journey.

Several resources are available to students to help them connect with alumni:

• The 黑料传送门 Alumni Career Advising Network is an online mentoring platform accessible through the 黑料传送门 website. The platform connects students to hundreds of 黑料传送门 alumni for one-on-one conversations to discuss career paths, job search advice, networking, etc.
• The School of Business Internship Director (Jeff Donlon) maintains a full database of School of Business alumni with latest employer, title, and contact information, and can help facilitate student introductions on a case-by-case basis.
• The Career Design Center and Jeff Donlon maintain rosters of employer connections, Business Advisory Council members, and past 黑料传送门 internship host sites. In many cases, warm introductions of students to these community partners can be facilitated.
• Students can use services such as LinkedIn to search for alumni working in their field of interest.

This link shows the recommended schedule. If you are a transfer student you may need to do more in order to catch up.

Professional development certificate

• LinkedIn is a popular business-related social networking website for professionals. The network contains more than 500 million members in more than 200 countries. A well-written LinkedIn profile gets more visibility which helps in grabbing more opportunities and networks.

From seeking a new job to maintaining your personal brand, using LinkedIn is an important part of being a full-fledged professional in any industry these days.

Students can learn many essential things from Excel, such as data visualization, faster calculations, organization and reconstruction, filtering, planning, and many more.

• During early registration a student鈥檚 registration limit is 17 credits.
