Dixie L. Leavitt School of Business
Through student-centered education, the Dixie L. Leavitt School of Business provides the knowledge and direction that forms a foundation for lifelong student success.
Business Career
Services
We can help connect our students with internships, employment opportunities, or graduate programs. This includes one-on-one career advising, resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn assistance, professional development seminars, career fairs, employer trips, and employer information sessions. You are not alone in the job search before or after you graduate!
Entrepreneurship Speaker Series
The Entrepreneurship Speaker Series provides a different entrepreneur each week to share their insights, struggles, challenges and lessons learned. The speakers and assignments will provide students with varying perspectives on entrepreneurship and give them insights to what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur.
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)
This program offers free tax help to people who generally make $56,000 or less, persons with disabilities, the elderly and limited English speaking taxpayers who need assistance in preparing their own tax returns. IRS-certified volunteers provide free basic income tax return preparation with electronic filing to qualified individuals.
