Connected to industry. Guided by experts.
In the School of Business and Technology we take pride in ensuring that all programs are relevant and up-to-date. One way that we ensure relevance is by working with advisory boards. Each of the School’s three departments are supported by an advisory board of volunteers from industry. These boards meet on a regular basis to review academic programs and provide insights about industry trends and needs. These industry professionals work in a variety of fields and for a variety of companies across the region in which our graduates start their careers. We are proud to share the names of our advisors on this site.

For the career paths of our students in the School of Business & Technology, connections between faculty and industry professionals play a key role in ensuring that our graduates hit the ground running the moment they start their first full-time position. Their careers start here at Wayne State on day one with the goal of a seamless transition into industry upon graduation. We would not be able to accomplish that without the support of approximately 50 experts who invest their time voluntarily to ensure our students are well prepared. We are very grateful for their support and the support of the companies they represent.
