Regis College offers an unrivaled business education through the Marshall M. Sloane School of Business and Communication. This ACBSP accredited SoB was named after the founder of Century Bank, who was a major supporter of the school throughout his lifetime. Regis was originally founded as a women’s only Roman Catholic college, but today the campus educates a diverse student population. Every student completes at least one internship, and 97% of students are employed or enrolled in graduate school six months post-graduation. The 12:1 student-to-faculty ratio gives professors more time to devote to each student as mentors.
Education
Undergraduate students can earn a Bachelor of Science in Business Analytics or Financial Planning. The Bachelor of Arts degree is available in Business Management, Communication, Global Business Management, or Marketing and Communications. Students can also choose to minor in Accounting/Finance, Data Analytics, Economics, or Film Studies. The Fast Track Program allows highly motivated students to complete a Bachelor of Arts in Global Business with a minor in Communication in just three years. This program is ideal for students who already have their mindset on a global business career and who want to save money or earn their bachelor’s and master’s degrees in a shorter time. The first Fast Track cohort will launch in Fall 2020.
Graduate students can pursue a master’s degree in Strategic Communication. Students can follow the Sports or Non-profit track. Both tracks feature a required capstone course. The sports track includes Sports Communication, Sports Marketing and Advertising, and Sports Writing. Students in the Non-profit track will take Non-profit Communication, Grant Writing, and Public and Private Disasters: Crisis Communication. All classes are offered in eight-week sessions in a hybrid format.
Student Life
Regis is an exciting campus to be a part of! Students who are invited into the Honors Program will participate in individual and group service-learning projects and serve as a mentor to other students. PRIDE Scholars build a strong rapport with their peers through special learning communities, student mentoring by an upper-classman, and experiential learning opportunities. Several recruiting events are held on campus to help 100% of students secure an internship. Over 1,600 jobs are posted annually on the Regis online career board. Graduate students receive individualized career coaching sessions.
