I was auditor of the SUAS society, travelled to Kenya two summers, made life-long friends and got to complete a work placement where I learned so much about how business works in the real world. My entrepreneurship lecturer also connected me with my first job after college where I connected with my now business partner, Isolde”. Sarah O’ Connor BComm Grad “After I completed the BComm I was able to use my knowledge to begin my career at some amazing companies like Sky, Twitter and Slack. Since then I founded my own company Gym+Coffee (with a fellow BComm graduate), and as we grow our business, it has been very reassuring to see how beneficial my BComm knowledge, network and experience continue to be.” Niall Horgan BComm Grad
