WELCOME TO REAL-WORLD LEARNING

As a Helzberg student, you will benefit from numerous internship opportunities, participate in resume building business projects, tap into our extensive network of employers and engage in capstone projects that have businesses taking notice.


YOUR DEGREE IN ACTION

Here are some examples of how your Helzberg bachelor's degree leads to real, hands-on learning experience.

ACG Cup

ACG Finance Cup

Four Helzberg students from the Helzberg School competed in the 2013 ACG Cup competition, a premier case study competition where students present corporate valuations, capital markets and M&A strategic advice to a panel of M&A professionals in the region. The Rockhurst students beat out teams from the University of Kansas and Kansas State University to finish first and earn a $2,000 prize.

Global Grundfos Challenge

Global Grundfos Challenge

Grundfos International challenged student teams to participate in two case competitions to solve real business challenges. Teams had access to real company resources to evaluate the problem and formulate solutions. Rockhurst was one of the two business/economics teams from North America that advanced to an international case competition in Denmark in March 2013. The competition team included Andy Holt, '13 MBA, Sarah White, '13, and Anna Juenemann, '14.

Gould Scholastic Award

The 2013 topic asked students to examine what strategies, technologies or influences could move Generation Y from consumers to investors. Students from Dr. Brian Fitzpatrick's international finance class and Dr. Sudhakar Raju's financial markets and institutions class wrote papers on the topic. Rockhurst University sent three of these outstanding papers to the national competition. Christina Troupe took first and Benjamin Hebbert won second place competing with a field of students from UMKC, the University of Kansas, Avila University, Truman State and Saint Louis University. The two Helzberg students received $10,000 and $5,000 for their accomplishments.

GET RIGHT DOWN TO BUSINESS

Jump into your businesses course work with business and economics courses during your first semester in the program. It's all part of Rockhurst's holistic approach to learning that prepares you to lead, shape and change the world around you. We call it creating leaders of competence and conscience, but you can just call it learning to make a difference in the world. See the full curriculum in our current catalog.


AACSB Accredited Business Degree Programs

AACSB ACCREDITED BUSINESS SCHOOL

Employers take notice of applicants from AACSB-accredited business degree programs. To earn this prestigious accreditation, Rockhurst met rigorous, relevant and carefully reviewed standards. With fewer than five percent of the world's 13,000 business programs earning AASCB accreditation, graduating from an accredited program is a powerful differentiator around the globe. In fact, Rockhurst's Helzberg School of Management is the region's only private, AACSB accredited school.
