Advice to Baruch College

In order to improve the college, understanding student's demand is the first step to be taken.

First of all, since most of students have a job, Baruch needs to consider setting up online classes. It is of course though to design online business classes because it has to have discussion, group presentation, and debate. So I would suggest to set up half online and half on campus course. Students meet on campus about twice a month for presentation, then they work on everything online. A lot of people have SNS or blog account, so they can easily communicate with each other.

Second of all, I think orientation, career developments and writing help, such as resume review, job fair preparation, and editing paper can be done online. In that case, student might need to submit their paper or resume in ahead of time to make sure it is ready for due date. But if those things can be done by online, lots of students and employees at Baruch have more flexible time. Also, preparation for job interview can be done by using skype. Baruch are famous for student's diversity of nationality, so lots of them get hired by international companies or out side of U.S. Those companies now correspond to job interview through online, because they find out that they get to have interview more variety of people in that way. Therefore, the career center needs to adopt with the new way of job interview too.
