The CBA is privileged to have several advisory boards comprised of more than 200 senior executives from regional businesses. These executives volunteer their support and expertise either to the college as a whole or to individual departments, institutes and centers, and play very important roles in the CBA.

In addition to providing financial support for college programs, board members also provide advice and guidance on academic programming assuring that our curricula remain fresh, relevant and rigorous. Advisory board members also interact with CBA students as mentors and as guest speakers in classes, and provide internship and job opportunities for our students.

If you are not on one of our advisory boards and would like to join, please contact Cynthia Sheeks, Assistant Director of Development, at csheeks@uakron.edu or 330-972-8641.
