Lecture Series

Byrd Distinguished Lecture Series

The Byrd Distinguished Lecture Series was established in 1983 to provide a forum for the presentation, consideration and discussion of critical issues on the local, regional, national and international scene. This series provides students in the Harry F. Byrd, Jr. School of Business the opportunity to hear and question some of the most interesting business, social, educational and governmental leaders of the day.

The Institute for Entrepreneurship in the Byrd School sponsors the Distinguished Speaker Series. Successful entrepreneurs are brought to campus to share their experiences, lessons learned, and expertise with students, faculty, and the business community. Innovative business leaders provide enriching conversations for the student body during both the fall and spring semesters of the academic year.

Executive in Residence and Senior Executive Counselor Programs

The mission of these programs is to enhance the academic excellence of the Byrd School of Business through the practical experience of veteran business executives. Executives provide mentoring and counseling services for students, deliver classroom lectures, and provide students with job-search advice as well as career and job-performance counseling.
