ACHIEVE Program

The School of Business Administration’s ACHIEVE program equips students with knowledge, skills, and competencies for personal and professional success, while encouraging and coaching students to thrive and make an impact in their chosen fields.

Woven through a series of three required courses exclusively for OU’s undergraduate business students, the ACHIEVE program delivers a blend of professional development workshops, online professional development modules, and authentic engagement with industry volunteers. Students participate in mock interviews and networking experiences, coaching on resumes and personal brand development, and professional practice with communication, professionalism, critical thinking, equity and inclusion, and ethical decision making.

Courses in the ACHIEVE program are a hybrid format, designed to offer flexibility for various student needs. Students select from options for in-person or virtual workshops when registering for ACHIEVE courses (course, course and course). Students may be required to self-schedule additional activities and assignments as indicated in the syllabus and participation requirements for each course.
