Juniors and seniors from Manchester High School, and their teachers, visited the School of Business earlier this month to learn more about business careers and explore their interest in the field.

The event consisted of a tour of campus, a presentation by a panel of MBA students sharing their experiences working internationally or with global companies, and a negotiations tactics class taught by Professor Nora Madjar. MBA panelists included Adam Gelb, Pia Holtmeier and Joe Thorne. The event was organized by the Global Business Programs Office.

The visit was the second for the Manchester students, who also came to campus in April to hear a team of professors from the language department explain the professional opportunities for people who speak multiple languages.
