Career Exploration Night

This event occurs once a year in the fall semester. It is required for all Mays freshmen as part of the BUSN 101 (Freshman Business Initiative) course and is attended by approximately 1200 students.

The format of this event is similar to a career fair, with 60+ employer partners joining us on campus to provide information for freshmen. On the same night, students hear from each department in Mays about the different majors available to them.

Benefits for Students

  • Learn about Mays majors
  • Practice engaging with companies in a low-stakes environment
  • Interact with companies from a variety of industries

Freshman students will learn more about this required event in their BUSN 101 course.

Please note: This event is for freshman Mays students only!
