Associations
The Accounting Association encourages professional interest among students preparing for careers in business administration, and offers programs geared toward accounting.
The Finance Association's objective is to bridge the gap between academic and professional life for students seeking career paths in the finance world. The reins of the association are in the hands of elected student officers. Students organize club activities which include trivia, discussion/debates, field trips, etc. A faculty member from the Accounting and Finance Department helps out as advisor in all maters. The Finance Association strives to help students in developing the skills such as leadership, communications, public speaking and wider awareness of the field to succeed after graduation. Students wanting to join the club please contact Dr. Sanjay Kudrimoti for further details.
The American Marketing Association holds job fairs and a career day, as well as workshops on resume writing, interviewing techniques, letter writing, and dressing for industry. It also connects members of the Salem State business community with the professional chapter through seminars, dinners and conferences.
