UVM’s Grossman School of Business educates responsible managers for success in complex, global, multi-stakeholder and sustainable environments. Our students and faculty are passionate about building better organizations and a better society. Some of the top companies in the country recruit our students, including Google, Amazon, GE, Goldman Sachs, PwC, KPMG, Boeing, Ben & Jerry's, Seventh Generation, Trane, Fidelity, Johnson & Johnson and Morgan Stanley. More than 90% of all business students participate in at least one internship and 96% of the students have jobs within 6 months of graduation.

Experiential learning is a crucial component of student success. Internship and study abroad opportunities, case and business pitch competitions, networking events with prominent alumni and local and regional business leaders, career panels and business leaders on campus are an important part of the curriculum. The students’ educational experience and activities are enriched by our spectacular location: from the energy and innovation of Burlington, Vermont, to the forests, farms, and independent spirit of Vermont.
