The HUB
Your college experience is about more than earning credits. It's about building the relationships, experiences and skills that prepare you for what comes next.
The HUB is the College of Business Administration's student engagement and professional development center. Located in Grawn Hall 112, it's where you can explore opportunities, connect with mentors and peers and discover experiences that help you grow as a student, leader and future professional.
Whether you're looking for a student organization, leadership experience, competition, mentor, internship support or simply a place to start, the HUB helps you take the next step.
Say yes to what's possible
Some of the most important parts of your college experience won't happen during class. They happen when you introduce yourself at an event. Join an organization. Take on a leadership role. Meet a mentor. Step into an opportunity that pushes you outside your comfort zone.
The HUB supports students from their first campus visit through graduation, helping them build connections, gain experience and prepare for what's next. Whether you're exploring CMU for the first time, preparing for your first semester or looking for ways to deepen your involvement, we're here to help you turn possibilities into plans.
We can help you:
- Connect with student organizations and involvement opportunities.
- Explore your interests, strengths and career possibilities through assessments like CliftonStrengths®, MBTI and others.
- Get career and academic success coaching by stopping in or booking an appointment.
- Develop leadership and professional skills.
- Build relationships with mentors, alumni and employers.
- Find internships, experiential learning opportunities and hands-on experiences.
- Navigate challenges, access support resources and create a plan for success.
- Connect with the Business Residential College and other communities that help students thrive.
- Create a college experience that supports your personal and professional goals.
Get career-ready
Career readiness doesn't happen by accident, it takes intentional experiences, meaningful connections and consistent skill development.
That's why many of the activities supported by the HUB align with the Central Career Guarantee, a university-wide commitment designed to help students prepare for life after graduation.
When students complete the requirements of the Central Career Guarantee and earn their degree, CMU guarantees a job offer or graduate school acceptance within six months of graduation or provides financial support while continuing to assist in the search process.
The HUB helps students discover and participate in many of the experiences that make that preparation possible.
