Business and Community Partners
We are extraordinarily proud of the close working relationships we enjoy with leaders of Indiana's business, nonprofit, and governmental sectors. Understanding the important role of external partners in the success of higher education and developing the future workforce of Northeast Indiana, many executives volunteer their expertise by serving on advisory boards and academic committees. Others serve as faculty mentors, student mentors, academic tutors, and judges of our business plan contests.
