ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Goes to Work
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Students are Ready to Work
At ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, students are situated in opportunity-rich Atlanta where personal relationships with faculty and active, connected alumni provide support and mentorship.
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Goes to Work Day will advance OU’s commitment to preparing students for leveraging their education to obtain meaningful professional experience. These site visits will inform the sophomore class about what Atlanta has to offer to them as they complete their studies and are ready to move forward in their career journeys.
“Increasingly, colleges have to demonstrate the value that they bring to the career prospects for a student, and we believe strongly that the liberal arts education they receive is a high career value.â€
President McClymond
The Value of an ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Student
Recruiting ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø students means recruiting some of Atlanta’s most talented thinkers and doers.Ìý
OU students have participated in an intentionally designed sequence of courses called the CORE. OU students know how to relate concepts and ideas, even when complex. They are critical thinkers, problem-solvers, and are prepared to motivate people and lead initiatives.Ìý
