I'm looking into business programs in Kentucky and need advice on which college would be the best for my degree. Interested in schools with a strong curriculum, good internships, and career support services. Any feedback from students or alumni?
The University of Kentucky's Gatton College of Business and Economics could be an excellent choice. Their business program is notable for a broad-based curriculum that provides a solid foundation in core business principles. Gatton's curriculum is often updated too, ensuring that the courses are aligned with current business trends.
Internship opportunities at Gatton are plentiful, owing to their robust partnerships with local, national, and international companies. There's a Business Career & Internship Fair held every semester specifically for business students to network and land internships.
In terms of career support services, Gatton has a dedicated Graham Office of Career Management that provides resources like resume reviews, interview preparation, career planning, and job search strategies. Many students have been able to secure roles in top companies and organizations, as reflected in their consistently high job placement rates.
However, I'd recommend taking a tour (in-person or virtual) of the college and speaking with current students and faculty. This should give you a firsthand experience of what it's like to be part of their business program.
