  Exploring Careers in NYC

  USU Jon M. Huntsman School of Business

  Sixteen students, along with two faculty members, traveledto New York City earlier this summer for three days of career exploration visits with finance firms. The ten visits included large firms such as Goldman Sachs, KPMG, and Bloomberg as well as S&P, Time Inc, and JetBlue. The students also took part in an event that brought together alumni in the area. Grant Brinkerhoff, a sophomore Finance student, stated that “this was such an amazing experience to learn more about the different jobs in the financial field. It was an eye-opening experience seeing the different aspects of finance and corporations that I liked and did not like. Because of this trip I know which classes I want to take to finish my major. I am grateful for all of the alumni that took time out of their busy schedule to meet with us, it really has changed what I want to do with the rest of my life.” Senior Finance major Riley Nielson said that “I got to NYC with tons of questions about my future goals and plans. I left with all of my questions answered. It definitely was a life changing experience.”

  Helping Families in Need

  USU Jon M. Huntsman School of Business

  Many Americans feel stress and uncertainty about their finances. In a recent Federal Reserve report, nearly one-third of survey respondents said theyʼre “just getting by” financially, and about one-quarter reported struggling to pay bills. Almost half of the respondents said they would be unable to come up with just $400 for an emergency. Emotional responses to financial stress can further compound the effects of financial stress. Financial strain may also have serious consequences for families and marriages. The Institute for Divorce Financial Analysis reports that money issues are the third highest cause of divorce, at 22%.

  Research by Huntsman MIS Faculty Magno Queiroz Published in Prestigious Information Systems Journals

  USU Jon M. Huntsman School of Business

  A research article, published in the September 2016 issue of the Journal of the Association for Information Systems, investigates how organizations pursuing different business strategies can generate performance gains from information technology (IT). The study, co-authored with Paul Tallon (Loyola University Maryland), Tim Coltman (University of Wollongong), and Rajeev Sharma (University of Technology Sydney), finds that traditional approaches for assessing the alignment between IT and business strategy are unable to explain how IT is used to drive new strategies and create future business benefits. The study develops a new approach for measuring the strategic alignment of IT and shows how it can be used to assist IT managers in better understanding and quantifying the business impact of IT.
