Mission:

The Business Connections Learning Community (BCLC) at UConn strives to empower first- and second-year Business students at the Storrs and Stamford campuses to build a strong foundation for academic, professional, and personal success. Through a customized blend of experiential learning, the BCLC provides students with meaningful opportunities to broaden their business knowledge, sharpen professional skills, and create a lasting connection with School of Business alumni, faculty, staff, peers and the University.

By participating in specialized programs such as professional development conferences, networking skill-building forums, alumni-in-residence sessions, industry site visits, and an annual international business immersion trip, students gain early exposure to the business world. Our vision is to instill a clear sense of direction, purpose, and confidence in our students, inspiring them to pursue their goals and thrive in their future business careers.

Vision:

To cultivate a dynamic community of future business leaders who are academically prepared, professionally confident, and deeply connected to the UConn School of Business and the broader business world.
