Missouri Southern State University’s (MSSU) Plaster School of Business will host the third annual Business Gateway — a free business competition and workshop event for area high-school students — on Thursday, November 7, at Missouri Southern State University.
With the success of the previous year, the Plaster School of Business is excited to continue to grow this event.
“We’re excited to hold Business Gateway again this year,” said Dr. Lucas Dille, assistant professor of accounting and coordinator of the Business Gateway. “Over 630 students from 32 schools will participate in the event. Our goal is to bring developmental and recruitment aspects as well as the competition. We want to introduce students to what the Plaster School of Business has to offer and give them a taste of what Missouri Southern is about.”
A variety of competitive events and presentations will run from 9:00 am to noon in MSSU’s Plaster Hall, followed by an awards ceremony at 1:15 pm in Taylor Performing Arts Center. Workshops include video podcasting sessions and virtual production in filmmaking and advertising hosted by the communications department as well as food experiments presented by the kinesiology department. Participants may also partake in a tour of the communications department.
The competition will include individual and team-based events in categories such as social media, accounting, data analytics, tourism, business communication, and more.
