MBA Committees

The International Committee works to help international students acclimate to a new country, find resources, and gain assistance for internships and job placement. The International Committee also provides opportunities for students to learn and celebrate the myriad of heritages and ethnicities represented at Scheller and the areas surrounding metropolitan Atlanta. Committee-hosted events often include cultural festivals and social activities like karaoke and dancing. Smaller gatherings are often field trips to local restaurants or potlucks where members put on their chef caps and share favorite dishes with fellow food explorers! The International Committee is a great "base camp" and opportunity for international students to join a smaller Scheller family to support their transition to Georgia Tech and the north Georgia area.

The Peer Leadership program augments the tight-knit Scheller student community by pairing second-year MBA student mentors with first-year students. Mentors meet with each of their mentees on a regular basis (frequency determined by pair) and serve as a great resource for students navigating the first year of their MBA. Through the program, mentors develop their leadership and coaching skills, receive professional coaching instruction, and strengthen the Scheller network by establishing close ties with the incoming class. The program also fosters strong alumni relationships by connecting new alumni with second-year students.

The MBA Wellness Committee's intention is to provide resources to help improve the health, mental health, and well-being of the Scheller MBA student community. The committee aims to promote awareness and accessibility for students to connect through a variety of wellness resources available on campus. The committee organizes health-related initiatives and events, such as a wellness calendar, webinars, and guest speakers. The guiding principle is to nurture the well-being and holistic advancement of our students.
