We are the Decision Sciences Student Association (DSSA). We represent the Supply Chain and Management Information Systems (MIS) students at JMSB. Throughout the academic year, we host several events which help bridge the gap between students, professors, and employers. These events include company tours, workshops, recruitment cocktails, speaker conferences, and competitions.
By focusing on providing students with industry knowledge, we will prepare them to enter the work force with key skills. Due to the rise in demand for these two majors, we will create awareness and inform students on all available opportunities. Supply Chain and MIS are the core of the operations in any type of business and knowledge in these fields gives students a competitive advantage. JMSB graduates in these areas enjoy challenging but rewarding careers.
Once again, DSSA is hosting a conference all about sustainability and greening the supply chain and we would love for you all to come!
There will be a speaker series by industry professionals from renowned companies such as:
- IBM
- Bombardier
- Wire Rope Industries
as well as a special presentation all about Concordia’s own sustainable efforts, given by Career Management Services Career Advisor, Shelly Elslinger
She will discuss finding a career and managing the career development process. She will go over how students can become “active” job searchers and how they can become more successful by learning some handy job search tips and strategies.
Shelly will also discuss some “sustainability” trends in business/best practices and how students can empower on campus and ways that business students can get involved as they move towards becoming responsible business leaders.
The speaker series will be followed by a Networking Cocktail along with Wine and Cheese!
Please join us at the beautiful Fairmont Queen Elizabeth Hotel and don’t forget to dress to impress! This is a fantastic networking opportunity for all you job seekers!
