Somehow, the summer is almost over and it’s Back-t0-School time once again. For business school students, that often means moving to a new city; learning the ins and outs of campus life; meeting the peers, staff and faculty who will be by your side the next two years; and embracing a whole lot of change. It’s an exciting time, but also a busy one.
As you navigate orientation and the start of class, know that the entire Brandeis community is here to support and guide you. While we’ll share A LOT of information with you over the next few weeks, we don’t expect you to memorize and remember every detail. When it comes to career advice and preparation from the Career Strategies and Engagement Center (CSE), for instance, a lot of what we share in these early days can also be found on our student-facing CSE website: CSE Connect!
