School of Business & Management
Emmanuel’s campus is buzzing with the exchange of ideas. The School of Business & Management welcomes top executives to campus to share their expertise on entrepreneurship, industry trends and corporate responsibility. Through the Emmanuel Business Collaborative, students participate in original research, business competitions and incubator projects on campus, while also partnering with area businesses for internships, live case studies and mentorship programs. For those looking to gain a hands-on approach to the ins and outs of running a business, the College’s student-run Cardinal’s Nest Café develops and executes all aspects of branding, marketing, inventory, budgeting and more, while also serving as a gathering and event space for study sessions—or study breaks.
There. Everywhere. With all of the opportunities in Boston, do you really need to study abroad? The reality is, the continued globalization of the world economy is presenting companies with new markets to infiltrate every day, and you are almost guaranteed to collaborate with partners and customers worldwide. The ability to work and communicate cross-culturally is significant. Emmanuel students gain insight and experience at leaders in global business, such as London, Berlin, Dublin, Shanghai, Paris, Bangkok, Barcelona, Rome and others.

MAJOR: Economics, concentration in Economic Policy
In Emmanuel’s “History of Economic Thought,” Erin learned about communism through reading others’ books and articles. During her semester abroad in a recently post-communist state, she was able to see firsthand how an economic system can shape society’s behavior, innovation and culture. In fall 2019, Erin studied at the University of Economics in Prague, Czech Republic, through the Central and East European Studies program. She took courses in international relations, globalization and world politics and the Czech language, as well as an internship for elective credit.
“Economics is the study of how we make decisions about limited resources. All over the world, people are making different choices about different resources and getting different outcomes. Studying abroad has allowed me to think about problems in a new way and realize my options are far less limited than I thought.”
She interned at the Consortium of Migrants Assisting Organizations, a collective of 18 NGOs working to solve problems related to migrants and refugees in Czech Republic. As the EU and International Political Analysis Intern, she consolidated news on migration policy and events, such as the impact of climate change on small island states, implications of Brexit and more, for a weekly newsletter. She also drafted papers for the organization’s website, which is used to inform the general public and provide contextual knowledge for policymakers shaping migration laws in the country.

A Glimpse I N T O T H E Curriculum
INTERNET MARKETING From banners at the top of web pages and Instagram posts to e-mails and promotional notifications when passing by a certain retailer, we are bombarded by advertisements every day. Sometimes the ads are for the same pair of boots you were considering two weeks ago—and that’s not a coincidence. In a time when marketers and consumers are equally savvy, learn more about how companies use keywords, location intelligence and other analytics to plan, target and create interactive marketing tools designed to reach the right audience with the right message at the right time.

SPORT LAW How much should NCAA schools compensate student-athletes in the form of scholarships? Do sports video games and fantasy leagues overstep trademark or rights of publicity law? It’s no secret that there is big money in sports. The sports market (which includes ticket sales, sponsorships, media rights and merchandising) in North America alone is worth an estimated $73 billion (Statista, November 2019). Given the competitive nature of the industry and lucrative deals around multi-million-dollar payrolls, lawsuits are inevitable. This course offers a review of legislation and cases relating to professional and amateur athletics and athletes, sports events, sports merchandising, contracts, broadcasting and sponsorships.
RESEARCH SPOTLIGHT
When it comes to diversity initiatives in corporations, does money talk? With movements such as Black Lives Matter and #MeToo shining a light on systemic inequalities, Assistant Professor of Management Dr. Kelly Basile and management major Ryan Arisian ’24 began researching whether linking executive compensation to corporate social performance targets has been effective in holding leaders accountable for initiatives relating to corporate social responsibility. During summer 2021, they began analysis of S&P 500 companies’ diversity, equity inclusion metrics (DEI) such as employee diversity, board diversity and managerial diversity to ultimately answer the question: Do corporations who tie executive compensation to DEI targets perform better on DEI outcomes and overall, have better firm performance?

Julia Sena ’23 MAJOR: Marketing MINOR: Graphic Design
As a marketing student, Julia is interested in why we make choices as consumers— of all the messages we are exposed to, what draws our attention and why? “Everyone sees marketing and design intertwined every day, on billboards or Instagram ads, whether they realize it or not. For me, the two fields married nicely,” she said. She put both sets of skills to use as an intern at the Boston Symphony Orchestra, where she led outreach across various autism-focused and family groups for the institution’s Holiday Pops Sensory-Friendly Concert. Her most valuable takeaway, though, was that it all comes back to the human element. “My experience with the BSO solidified that I want to market a shared experience, as opposed to a product or item.”
“I love integrating the two worlds of business and art. In my brain, it’s like bringing together structure and creativity.”
