Well if you wanted to know more about marketing and management than the 18th annual student achievement conference held at Bemidji State was the place to be. More than 150 presentations were on display by undergraduate students. Presentations were underway at Hague Sauer Hall where students covered topics on psychology, economic costs, and supply and chain management. Conference gives students the opportunity to polish up their presentation skills so they'll be prepared for future employment. Faculty was also on hand to show support for the students. We need the students to be proud of their achievements and this is one way we bring students to present their knowledge and expertise projects and share it with the community. Presenting in itself is a good practice to have be able to speak in public and it also helps. It gives you industry experience for when you graduate and to become employable. Some students worked on their projects for at least a semester and participation in the conference wasn't required. The conference was also open to the public.
