Dear Scheller Community,
As we welcome the renewing energy of summer, I’m excited to share some updates and accomplishments from our College. This past month has been a testament to the power of experiential learning, corporate connections, and innovation that distinguish our community.
First, we successfully launched a new AI for Business Executive Education course. This course, designed to equip executives with the tools to leverage artificial intelligence in their business strategy, has received outstanding feedback from participants. Registration opens soon for the September 2024 session.
In another example of the power of practice-based learning, a group of talented Equity Research Boutique students led by Professor Mike Messner launched a Stock Valuation Research Portal. This platform not only showcases the technical and analytical skills of our students, but also provides a valuable resource for the broader business community. It’s inspiring to see our students applying their knowledge in ways that have a real-world impact.
This last month also saw us concluding our inaugural season of Tech Talks Business, with enlightening conversations featuring Carol B. Tomé, CEO of UPS, and David Solomon, CEO of Goldman Sachs, hosted by Michael Bloomberg and Bloomberg Philanthropies. The engagement and participation in our Spring 2024 events have been phenomenal, and we look forward to bringing more inspiring leaders to the Scheller community in the fall.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge 14 of our esteemed faculty members who have been recognized for their outstanding teaching through the Spring 2024 CIOS Honor Roll. I hope you'll join me in congratulating these individuals for their dedication to educational impact and student success: Ryan Blunck, Andre Calmon, Jonathan Clarke, Saba Colakoglu, Deven Desai, Jacqueline Garner, Tim Halloran, Satyajit Karnik, Mingfeng Lin, Dong Liu, Florin Niculescu, Dori Pap, Frank Rothaermel, and Ravi Subramanian.
As we continue to build on these successes, I am reaching out to you, our valued community, for your transformational ideas. We have had the fortune of receiving innovative suggestions from stakeholders throughout our community. Please continue to share ideas we could pursue as a College. You can submit your ideas through the Scheller Initiatives page or email them to dean@scheller.gatech.edu.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication to the Scheller College of Business. It's exhilarating to be doing great things together!
