Full Semester at Rennes

MBA students have the opportunity to spend a semester or year at ESC Rennes in France and earn a second master's certificate or degree. Rennes, a city of 350,000 and the capital of Brittany in Northern France, is the home of 50,000 university students.

Kent State students will pursue their MBA core courses at the Kent Campus during the first academic year. During the following fall, the student will take international and elective coursework at Rennes. Students pay the same rate of tuition as they do at the Kent Campus.

Professional Development Opportunities and MBA Career Coach

A professional development course is built into the full-time MBA curriculum and includes hands-on activities such as self-assessments, personal branding, networking, career exploration and management, developing a career development plan and negotiating job offers. In addition, our MBA career coach individually assists students with résumé critique, interview strategies and a tailored career plan.

Internships

In addition to gaining valuable work experience and pay, internships can earn students elective course credit. Our Career Services internship coordinator regularly sends internship opportunity notices for a variety of industries and functions.

Career Fairs

Don't miss these opportunities to meet and network with representatives from a wide variety of organizations seeking interns and job candidates for immediate and future openings.

Case competitions, such as the Key Bank Competition, provide students with the opportunity to address business issues that face companies today. Through research, evaluation and presentation, teams have the chance to refine their analytical, team building and communication skills, while letting their talents shine in front of a panel of experienced business professionals.
