Providing professional development in all disciplines of business

Amogh Potlapalli

BAM helped me grow professionally through unique networking opportunities with some of the biggest companies in the Twin Cities. I got to see what working at these companies would be like, and I got to know recruiters on a personal level. BAM also put on many large-scale diversity and service events each year, which helped strengthen the multicultural community at the U. BAM helped me grow as a leader and helped me get to where I am today. 


Promoting multiculturalism, leadership, and community service

Jawad Chowdhury

Being an International Student, I wasn’t completely sure of what to expect because it was my first time being heavily involved with a student organization in the United States. However, my overall experience was great as BAM cultivates a culture that ensures everyone is involved no matter who you are. My involvement led me to achieve the position of Direct of IT, which helped me gain some experience with handling the technical aspects of an organization. Apart from this, I was able to meet wonderful people and colleagues along the way. Anyone reading this, considering going BAM, it’s worth it!


Perfecting the relationship between students and the business industry

Being on BAM board has been a valuable experience. I loved my time in BAM as a member and as a board member. I learned a lot of team management skills through constantly working with various board members and general members. I especially loved working on Diversity in the Workplace as a BAM member and I was so excited to work on the next one as a board member. Although my time with BAM was fleeting, I gained meaningful relationships with all the members. BAM definitely helped me gain leadership experience and skills that I still use today.
