On-Campus Presentations and Interviews

If your organization would like to connect with our students, we invite you to visit the department. Employers have the opportunity to present to our students and/or hold interviews on-site. A typical employer visit would include a one-hour overview presentation over lunch (provided by the employer) followed by half-hour interviews.

If you are interested in reaching graduate students during your visit, contact the department's Graduate Studies Chair, Xinyi Xu (xu.214@osu.edu). If you would like to also reach our undergraduate students in Data Analytics, include that information and Michelle will work with our Data Analytics Academic Planning Specialist Jennifer Wells (wells.102@osu.edu). If you are only interested in reaching our undergraduate students, you can contact Jennifer directly. Please contact us at least one month prior to your desired date to determine the visit date, format of the visit and other details.
