Getting Involved
Corporate partners of the institute are invited to participate in activities that teach students about marketing and increase student awareness of opportunities in marketing. These activities produce returns for both yourself and students. First, they help ensure that your future employees are as knowledgeable, skilled, and ready for the workplace as possible. Second, they enhance your presence on campus, connecting you with potential future employees.
Examples of these activities include:- Participate in a marketing research project where students help address a problem your organization faces. Students plan, design, conduct, and report on the marketing research they undertook. They also convert their research findings into actionable recommendations for management.
- Develop case studies for Tippie marketing courses.
- Participate in our speaker series where you'll visit campus to talk about your career and company and answer students' questions.
- Bring students to your headquarters for an in-depth case project that addresses a business challenge your company is facing or for professional skills development.
