Meet the Coach!
Suzanne Jasmine

I started working as the Academic and Career Coach for BISOM majors in May 2016, and I have enjoyed seeing the department grow their three outstanding majors! I am very proud of my students' accomplishments and love supporting them in their academic and career development. Never hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about Management Information Systems!

I grew up in Concord, NC (Go Spiders!) and pursued a B.A. in Psychology at UNC-Chapel Hill followed by a M.Ed. in Student Affairs at Clemson University. I currently live in the Noda area with my fiance, Harrison, and we love the QC! We enjoy traveling and staying active through running, playing golf, and hiking with our German Shorthaired Pointer, Tagg. 

Operations and Supply Chain Management Fun!

Please see the summit agenda if you are interested in attending. This conference provides students interested in human resources – and specifically talent acquisition – a unique opportunity to learn from industry experts and experienced practitioners about real world TA compliance issues and challenges facing employers today.
