Bentley University
I had a great visit at Bentley University in Waltham, Ma today. Here's what I love: the career development office is more than just an office. The staff actually teaches a 6-week, one-credit class to all freshmen, wherein students find their strengths, set up a profile on LinkedIn, and start to understand the job market. Sophomore year, they teach a class in career exploration, and junior year, another one supporting the job search. Also, all students take a class with a corporate partnership experience where a company such as Microsoft, Converse, HP or Apple comes in with a problem. Students in the class work in teams to solve that problem. It's real-world experience supported by great internships and job placement with top companies such as Liberty Mutual, Fidelity and Big 4 accounting firms coming to campus to recruit. For business majors, Bentley is a great option!
