The Robert H. Smith
School of Business continues to be
committed to the expansion of a diverse
workforce. To that end, we recruit
students who represent the workforce of
today and the future.
Our recruiting efforts include
presentations at national conferences,
partnerships with professional
organizations, representation at
national fairs and forums and
recruitment events at colleges and
universities with significant enrollment
of under-represented populations. Our
on-campus programming includes
Kaleidoscope:
Women & Diversity at Smith a workshop
designed to attract talented members of
underrepresented groups who are
interested in management careers (as an
entrepreneur, or a part of a corporation
or not-for-profit organization).
The goals of the workshop are to offer
prospective-MBA students from
underrepresented populations (African
American, Hispanic American, Native
American, Women and GLBT) an overview of the
Smith MBA program, introduce them to the
fundamental disciplines of graduate
management education and provide
in-depth exploration of the admissions
process, financing the MBA, and career
opportunities post MBA. The workshop is coordinated by the Office of
Recruitment, with the support of our
student body and alumni, both
individually and collectively. Among the
Smith organizations vital to the program
are the BMBAA (Black MBA Association),
SAWMBA (Smith Association of Women
MBAs), HMBAA (Hispanic MBA
Association) and SPA (Smith Pride
Alliance).
