Student Leaders

BBA Gov

The BBA Gov was established to serve as the official student government of the undergraduate program, advising and providing insight related to Wisconsin School of Business academic and co-curricular issues. The group also acts as a focus group to assess current undergraduate programs and services, and to explore new initiatives for undergraduate students.

Graduate Business Association (GBA)

The GBA was formed in the Spring of 1977 by a group of students who felt the need for developing a more cohesive student body and a stronger sense of community among full-time Wisconsin MBA students, faculty, and staff. In an effort to aid MBA students during their studies and to promote student-faculty-staff interaction, GBA sponsors professional programs and social events. GBA also plays an active role with faculty toward improvement of the graduate studies program. All graduate business students are encouraged to join and participate.

Student Organizations

The Wisconsin School of Business has more than two dozen student organizations built on the interests of undergraduate and graduate business students.  These organizations are based on business function, diversity, topical interests and social networking. Each offers a chance for students to be part of a larger community and strengthen their skills in leading and being part of a team.
