Student Engagement

Part of COE’s mission is to provide opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students at the Fisher College of Business to connect with member companies.
Get involved
COE hosts 25+ events each year, and there are many opportunities for students to learn alongside our OpEx community. Students are welcome to attend all events in our webinar series, plus participate in our annual Summit at no cost.
Volunteering at COE events is a great way to give back to Fisher and make personal connections with our member companies.
During our annual Summit, students have the opportunities to assist with check-in and registration, serve as a greeter and way-finder for attendees, introduce speakers, help with off-site tours, and more!
COE has strong relationships with many companies throughout Central Ohio and beyond. If you’re interested in getting connected to one of our member organizations, COE can meet with you to offer a mock interview and help you understand more about the company.
COE is also available to partner with student organizations to help source speakers, off-site tours, and more.
Handshake is the system the Office of Career Management utilizes for posting jobs, creating on-campus interview schedules, providing details on employer information sessions and organizing career fairs.
COE regularly connects its member companies to project courses being offered at the Fisher College of Business for undergrads and graduate students.
COE and the faculty of the Operations and Business Analytics Department will award one scholarship to a Fisher College of Business first-year MBA student in operations management for fall semester 2025.
The amount of this scholarship award is $2,000, and the criteria for choosing the scholarship finalists include academic performance and service to the profession. If you are interested in being considered for this scholarship, please complete an application form and submit it with a current resume and copy of your web-printed transcripts to Dr. Erin McKie at mckie.5@osu.edu by May 9, 2025.
