The University of Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business will be the lead academic sponsor for the National Society of Hispanic MBAs’ (NSHMBA) National Conference and Career Expo in Chicago on Oct. 21-23, 2010. The university announced the selection last week.
'We have matching missions,' said Carolyn Woo, Martin J. Gillen Dean of the Mendoza College of Business. 'Both the Mendoza College and NSHMBA seek to develop business leaders who have a concern for the greater good of society as well as their organizations. The conference is an exciting opportunity for us to support their vision.'
Hispanic Magazine has ranked Notre Dame 13th on its 2008 list of 'Top 25 Colleges for Latinos,' the sixth year the university has made the list since its debut in 1999.
Past conferences have connected more than 8,000 Hispanic MBA students with 240 corporations and 70-plus academic institutions to promote professional development in the Hispanic community.
During the three-day conference, participants will be able to attend presentations by world-class leaders representing nonprofits, higher education and corporate America. The conference also offers resume and interview clinics, a case competition and the job expo.
