College Relations Corner
General Information on College Relations
As a vehicle for continuing to invigorate and support the OR/MS profession, the New York Chapter seeks to encourage interactions between students, faculty and practitioners.
Possibilities include:
- Contacting a college
- Meeting and talking with a student group
- Inviting a group to your company
- Having a student intern
- Having students work on a corporate project (much in
demand and a definite
win-win situation) - Mentoring a student
- Sponsoring and mentoring a high school student’s Intel project
- Judging a student competition
- Hosting a student event
- Attending a “Job Day”
- Sponsoring a student’s attendance at local or national meetings
- Sponsoring an international student
- List job openings
- Participating in other ways. Suggestions invite
We are interested in creating a Faculty Corner that would reside on the web site. Faculty members would be invited to send information about themselves; their college/university; their research, interests and student projects; plus a wish list with requests for the chapter and practitioners.
We are also considering setting up two list serves. One would be for faculty only to share tips on teaching OR/MS. The second forum would be for students, academics and practitioners. Anyone interested in becoming a moderator?
