Student Life

Many students participate in Phi Beta Lambda, the oldest and largest business student organization in the country. Students in this organization can attend the National Leadership Conference, where they can compete in categories such as Information Management, Cyber Security, Marketing Concepts, and Accounting Principles. The 2018 conference was held in Baltimore, Maryland. Students can also participate in the Collegiate Ambassador Board, the Business Club, and CBET Advisory Board. Many guest speakers present at special events open to business students, such as the Economic Outlook Dinner. Local businesses, including TSD Logistics and Priefert Manufacturing, have served as the site for class field trips. Students are able to take tours and learn about careers offered through those companies. AACSB has recognized TAMUT for the use of OrgSync. OrgSync is an online tool to track learning experiences outside of the classroom in order to create a co-curricular transcript. CBET has taken OrgSync one step further by creating a reflective learning survey to help students reflect on their experiences and to help professors see the effectiveness of the projects.

Online Programs

CBET strives to make learning convenient for all students, regardless of their location or employment status. All programs are offered online, utilizing Blackboard as the main platform. Professors may also choose to use testing centers or online proctor centers at their discretion. Students will participate in group discussions and engaging web-based lectures at a time that works best for them.
