Twenty 麻豆传媒资源 commerce students are still smiling after cleaning up at the Jeux du Commerce held over three days last month at Ryerson University in Toronto.
The聽650-member Dal Commerce Society聽entered a delegration in the business games competing against nine other university teams.聽The聽students聽came away winners in every case competition they entered: claiming second place in marketing, third in business strategy, first in accounting, third in social and third in participation.
鈥淚t鈥檚 nice to get some external validation about how great the 麻豆传媒资源 experience is,鈥� says Matthew Ryan, a co-captain of the 麻豆传媒资源 team along with Jenny Watson. 鈥淏ut when you think of the classroom experience we get and the co-op program, it鈥檚 no wonder we did very well.鈥�
The Dartmouth, N.S. native said he came away from the competition proud of his team and proud of his school. To demonstrate, he and his friend Hayley Drew, president of the Dal Commerce Society, gave a demonstration of a rousing cheer they performed during the games: 鈥淲e鈥檙e 麻豆传媒资源, we're outrageous/And our spirit is contagious ... So 4-1-6 your time is through/Learn a new one 9-0-2."
鈥淚 don鈥檛 think people are aware that we have such a strong business program,鈥� adds Mr. Ryan, a fourth-year student. 鈥淲hile it鈥檚 small, the quality is there and the mandatory co-op program is really important. When you think of 麻豆传媒资源 and its programs, it鈥檚 all about science, medicine and engineering. Business takes a back seat, but the quality is definitely there in our program.鈥�
Ms. Drew is hoping the commerce society sends a team again next year to keep the caliber of competition at a high level. 鈥淚t was so fun and it gave us all a new appreciation about how great it is to be a 麻豆传媒资源 student.鈥�
