LACY SCHOOL of BUSINESS
STUDENTS IN THE LACY SCHOOL of Business (LSB) complete at least two internships, work closely with a professional mentor, benefit from a variety of experiential learning opportunities, and run their own business, all before graduating from college. Through the Real Business Experience, —a class all LSB students take during their sophomore year—you will form teams, create a business idea, apply for funding, and start and run your own business. Butler University’s new platform—BlueWork— connects students and employers for shortterm, project-based work opportunities. Students are eligible to contract with BlueWork as early as their first year, allowing them to gain relevant work experience, build a network, and develop professional skills all through college.
UNITEDHEALTHCARE ACADEMY AT BUTLER UNIVERSITY Explore (and experience!) possible business career paths with UnitedHealthcare, a global leader in health insurance. Outside of the classroom, you’ll participate in a variety of innovative work-based learning experiences with UnitedHealthcare. Inside the classroom, you’ll benefit from our robust Lacy School of Business curriculum, focused on marketing, sales, and general business. You’ll earn a competitive wage throughout your college years, and be considered for a full-time job with UnitedHealthcare upon graduation.
STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITIES
As an LSB student, you can expect to have access to a top-notch learning environment through Dugan Hall, the new 110,000-square-foot business building. It’s home to classrooms and workspaces equipped with the latest technology, a trading room, a cafe, and even a rooftop deck. You’re sure to have a multitude of opportunities for interaction with faculty and members of the business community, so after four years, you’ll graduate a step ahead.
As a student in Butler’s Lacy School of Business, you won’t have to wait for a career to start. You’ll graduate with four years of experience.
Every Lacy student is assigned a career mentor who stays with them all four years of college, and often beyond. Mentors are experienced, high-level professionals who offer personal, substantive career advice and provide networking opportunities.
