USM Officer Participates in Duke-Oakwood Ph.D. Pipeline Opportunity Program
|
Posted By: Hija Chang on December 04, 2014 Charles White, finance student in the Business and Information Systems Department, and financial vice president of the United Student Movement, recently participated in Duke University's 2014 Summer Institute, as part of the Ph.D. Pipeline Opportunity Program (PPOP). The mission of the PPOP is to inspire and inform undergraduate students to prepare for careers as business faculty, with special emphasis on students in under-represented populations. White was thrilled to be selected in a very competitive process from among other students attending universities throughout the country. During the two-week Institute, he was required to write, present and defend a proposal, an exercise that he welcomed although he admitted that it was extremely challenging. "The opportunity to meet and network with professionals in business was priceless," Charles stated. "The chance to meet students from other universities who are serious about their academic pursuits was invaluable," he concluded. insideOakwood is published by the Office of Integrated Marketing & Public Relations Editor: George Johnson Jr. | Managing Editor: Debbe Millet | Student Writer: Monica Spencer www.oakwood.edu If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
