Mountaineers Sans Frontières

Mountaineers Sans Frontières

|

Students working with the Robbins Center for Global Business and Strategy took part in an experiential learning project that combined local service with international impact. 

A team of five graduate and undergraduate students collaborated with another team of five from George Washington University to help NIU by Talls – a juice company based in Hermitage, Pennsylvania – enter new global markets. The students advised NIU by Talls on country selection and analysis, marketing plans and operational logistics. The six-week project culminated in a presentation to the company's management team. 

" This project is a win for both our students and NIU Beverages,” said David Dawley, executive director of the Robbins Center. “The students gained access to resources, insights, and the mechanics of consulting.”

Embodying the Mountaineer Spirit

Congratulations to marketing student Madison Bowers, who was named a Mountaineer of Distinction this fall. The award was presented during WVU’s Mountaineer Week in October 2021 and recognizes exemplary academic achievement and extracurricular involvement. Way to go, Madison! “As someone who is from a tiny town in Coal County, West Virginia, winning this award meant the world to me. I firmly believe that it takes a village to raise a kid and I am endlessly thankful to my family, friends, community, and Chambers College family, for their help along the way. Once a Mountaineer, always a Mountaineer.”
