Past Programs
Boston Career Day
April 2023
In April 2023, Bryant University and Envestnet Institute on Campus co-hosted “Boston Career Day” at Natixis Investment Managers in Boston. The event was attended by close to 50 students as well as local high school students interested in the field of investment management. Our panelists and guests included numerous Bryant alumni who were eager to speak with and support our attendees. During the panel discussions and breakout groups alums shared invaluable advice and insights into the investment management field for our students.
Meet the Firm: Bank of America
November 2022
In the Fall of 2022, Bank of America hosted our students for a “Meet the Firm” event at their Lincoln, RI location for an afternoon filled with meaningful industry and career discussions. The panelists included executives from a variety of Bank of America’s business lines including the Private Bank, Trust Department, and Community Relations. The presentation included individual stories of career development, experiences navigating the industry and advice to young professionals embarking on their careers. Our students had an exceptional afternoon learning more about Bank of America and the banking industry.
Diversity in the Workplace
April 2022
In April 2022, our students were thankful to have an opportunity to hear from several executives at Fidelity Investments regarding Diversity in the Workplace. We welcomed to the Bryant campus, Sarah Pulsifer, Head of U.S. Equity and International Product, Nakia Tull, VP, Customer Inclusion Community Leader; and Michelle Vetovis, General Manager, Personal Investments Smithfield Regional Center.
Close to 80 students joined in this important discussion and learned first-hand the importance of diversity within the workplace both from an internal and external perspective.
Women in Finance Summit
November 11, 2021
On Thursday November 11, 2021, we hosted our first Women in Finance Summit for high school students on campus. This program was designed to help expose young females to the finance industry and the exceptional programming we offer here at Bryant at an earlier stage in their academic careers. This summit aimed to bring light to many misconceptions regarding the finance industry that ultimately deter many females from entering such a program. The audience consisted of junior and senior high school students as well as our current undergraduate women students. Close to 100 students attended.
The half day Summit included small panel breakout sessions discussing our main lines of study (investment management, corporate finance, banking and financial planning) followed by a luncheon and Keynote speaker, Eileen Hayes ’07, VP at BlackRock, formerly a VP at Envestnet, Inc. Envestnet Institute on Campus generously sponsored the event.
