Building strong relationships
The Corporate Engagement team works with our corporate partners to ensure that their sound investment generates a strong return. We also work closely with the following key offices of the Kelley School to develop customized strategies and expand the depth and breadth of relationships with our students, faculty, and alumni:
Housed in the newly built Conrad Prebys Career Services Center, UCS hosts career fairs, develops programming, and helps recruiters schedule student interviews.
Also located in the Prebys Center, GCS is a central office for students in all graduate programs including Full-Time MBA, Graduate Accounting Programs, MS in Information Systems, and Kelley Direct Online MBA.
With more than 70 student-run organizations, there is a special interest club for all passions.
Kelley's innovative Academies give Full-Time MBA students the opportunity to combine coursework with career-related experience to develop valuable real-world skills.
Centers and institutes bridge the gap between academia and corporate, creating an environment where faculty and students learn industry best practices and companies actively shape the curriculum of students to best match their talent needs.

We continue to expand our relationship with IU and Kelley because of their willingness to continuously innovate and seek new ideas from organizations like Deloitte.
