Below is a letter from Dr. Skinner about an Ireland internship opportunity.
Dear Students-
We have a wonderful opportunity next summer for UAB students to participate in an internship experience in Dublin, Ireland. The program is 7 weeks long, from June 14th to July 31st. Students will be matched with organizations in Ireland that can best optimize their skill sets, experience, and career goals. All students who are accepted into the program will be guaranteed a placement.
We are having an informational meeting on Thursday, December 3rd at 3:30 in room 320 in the BEC. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please plan on attending.
After winning first place in the Acton Entrepreneurial Hero competition last year, UAB | AMA wanted to exceed again to the top of the ranks. We decided to interview Alan Hunter, one of the original MTV DJs and one of the founders of Workplay. Alan provided us with some tremendous insight in his unique story. Below is a video UAB | AMA produced as well as some of the answers we submitted to the competition.
The interview was conducted on November 12 and was the combined work of Morgan Stone, James Oliveira and Michael Hyatt. Dr. Skinner provided us with tremendous guidance and support.
A big thanks to all the AMA members that came out to hear these great speakers.
Business professionals that spoke throughout the week were as follows:
Doug Schneider, VP of Marketing, Bayer Properties
REAL Marketer’s Panel:
Melissa Butler, Director of Marketing, Robins & Morton;
Jennifer Lyles, Marketing Coordinator, CTS, Inc;
David Fron, VP of Corporate Marketing, BBVA Compass
Rick Brown, President of the Alabama Retail Association, presents Mickey Newsome, CEO of Hibbet Sports a declaration declaring September 29 as Hibbet Sports Day.
This year, UAB | AMA students were able to help honor local retailers in the 2009 Retail Day presented by The Alabama Retail Association and UAB School of Business.
Earlier this year, UAB | AMA was asked to produce a video highlighting The UAB School of Business. We decided to focus on one of the ongoing themes at the school, creating break through opportunity. After producing the video, we decided to adopt the theme as our own.
