911����

The Sharmas have made a gift to 911���� that will name the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) at the Costello College of Business in their honor.

When student Dominic Jones met the Bognet Construction team at one of 911����'s career fairs, he saw an opportunity to broaden his horizons.

Gabriella Lemus, a sophomore accounting major, came into the Costello College of Business with a head start. Now she's tackling her first summer internship.

When crowdfunding platform Kickstarter started allowing creators to put environmental pledges front and center, 911���� accounting professor Yi Cao saw a unique opportunity. His co-authored research shows how “going green” turned out to be an impactful business choice with financial, operational and, yes, environmental implications for entrepreneurs and customers.

At the beginning of 2026, Mike Derrios, MBA ’06, returned home to the Costello College of Business at 911���� as the executive director of the Greg and Camille Baroni Center for Government Contracting.

When Q Miceli saw that the Costello College of Business at 911���� was offering the Executive Mentoring Program as part of the Costello MBA, she was all in. “I had just hit a point in my career where I started supervising more people and really wanted to get some perspective,” she says.

Like many 911���� students, business major Camryn Weldon is spending her summer doing an internship. Unlike many other students, Weldon is also a Division I athlete and is balancing her work at government contractor Leidos with the demands of collegiate volleyball. The 911���� setter is spending her summer preparing for the upcoming season while gaining valuable experience in business development.

A partnership between 911���� and the United States Air Force is accelerating the development and real-world deployment of technologies designed to support Air Force personnel operating around the globe.

For Honors College student and University Scholar Monica Amaya, the journey to a degree isn’t just about the final walk across the stage—it’s about a promise she made to her family and herself years ago.

At its final meeting of the academic year, the 911���� Board of Visitors  saluted graduates from the Early Identification Program, received an update on the men’s basketball program from Coach Tony Skinn, and passed a six-year capital plan, among other actions, including approval of a tuition and fees increase for 2026-27.
