"When I moved in the US a little over five years ago, Wright State was the obvious choice for me according to friends, family, and even strangers! I transferred my credits very easily with help from the University Center for International Education. Supply Chain Management was the best option for me since I want a career in purchasing.”
Leadership: I was lucky to join the French Club during my first year, and helped during some of their events like campus tours for high school students. I also helped revive the Supply Chain Management Club as part of the APICS Wright State Student chapter as President of the Club. During my last quarter at WSU, I was among the 12 student ambassadors working with the Office of the President, and got to meet wonderful people as part of my work.
My most valuable experience at the College of Business was being able to complete my honors research project with the help of my faculty advisor, Dr.Hamister. This was very rewarding from an academic and personal point of view. Wright State gave me opportunities to push myself farther. I was recognized among my peers for my academic and leadership achievements. It is alwas good to feel appreciated and WSU does appreciate its students!
Internships/ Class Projects: I completed my capstone project with a manufacturing company in Dayton. We were able to help them with their inventory management and forecasting their orders. It was a nice addition to my resume. I also interned in a boutique that opened a little over a year ago. They gave me the latitude to apply everything I learned in my Operations Management classes to their growing business.
Career Path: I am lucky enough to have opened a small business with my husband. It is growing, but I want a corporate experience as well, so i will apply for a full-time position in my field.
