MMIB Students Receive Top Awards from the Center for Career and Co-op

EKU's Department of Management, Marketing and International Business is pleased to congratulate two students who received honors awarded at EKU’s Student Employee of the Year Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, April 20.

The EKU Center for Career & Co-op's top awards both went to MMIB students making it a maroon-letter day for the Department.

Tanner Hayes, a senior management major from Rural Retreat, Va., was awarded EKU's Outstanding Co-op/Intern Student for 2015-16. Department Chair Dr. Lana Carnes said, "I wish all the MMIB faculty could have heard the comments your employer, Klockner Pentaplast, wrote about you and your education as a MGT major here at EKU! Their comments about your communication skills, professionalism, and respect in the workplace were particularly meaningful to me."

Receiving the award as EKU Outstanding Campus Student Employee for 2015-16 was Kim Smith. Smith is an international business major from Phoenix, N.Y. Carnes continued, "Your two nominations perfectly described your work ethic, personality, critical thinking skills, and intelligence. We value your leadership skills in MMIB as a Patterson Scholar and International Business major."
