Hands-On Learning
Join one of our active business-related student groups that may travel to Chicago and Milwaukee to meet with business alumni or bring notable speakers to campus. Maybe you’ll go abroad to work with and test your skills against foreign students in the International Information Technology Seminar.

What’s certain is that you’ll really get to know your professors, they’ll know you, and you’ll leave Northern with a wealth of skills to be flexible and successful in whatever you choose to do.
