Want to secure a full-time offer before graduation? It starts with the right experience. 💼✨

We just wrapped up our FIN 399 Internship Experience Panel! A huge shoutout to our senior panelists and alumnus Emir Avdagic for dropping real-world advice on landing top internships and turning them into full-time careers.

Top takeaways:
🎯 Start early: Finding the right fit takes strategic networking and persistence.

⚡ Own your role: Treat your internship like a full-time job from day one to prove you're ready for the offer.

🤝 Build real connections: The relationships you make today become your career opportunities tomorrow.

Our goal is simple: provide hands-on experiences that prepare you for the job market so you step out of college fully ready to work.

Stay tuned for upcoming career prep opportunities!

Innovation meets finance! 💼✨

Look at this incredible crew! 🌟 Our students accompanied by Dr. Kerron Joseph, have officially touched down in Rabat, Morocco, and the energy is unmatched. From exploring historic sites to diving deep into international finance, this group is stepping out of the classroom and onto the global stage.

Over the next few weeks, they’ll be collaborating with local entrepreneurs, analyzing market trends, and discovering how business moves in one of the world's most dynamic economic hubs.

But it’s not all spreadsheets and seminars the bond this group is building is already next-level. Lifelong friendships, unforgettable memories, and a massive career edge? Check, check, and check. ✔️

Stay tuned to our stories to follow their journey from the bustling markets to the boardroom!

Thank you, TVA, for providing this incredible learning opportunity for students! 🌟

WKU is proud to have been one of the original 19 schools to join the program back in 1998 and since then, hundreds of Hilltoppers have gained hands-on experience managing a real-world stock portfolio. 📈

The 2026 TVA Investment Challenge Program Conference marked another milestone in this outstanding partnership. The program, now in its 28th year, an impressive achievement!

A huge thank-you to all 28 universities in the program for making the trip to Nashville and for the incredible work managing your portfolios. During the conference, students attended keynote sessions on economic outlook, portfolio construction, and investment management. They also presented WKU’s portfolio, listened to presentations from other participating schools, explored careers in finance, and took advantage of valuable networking opportunities. 🤝💼

Here’s to continuing a legacy of learning, leadership, and financial excellence! ❤️💛
