Lindner Empowers Business Problem Solvers

At the Carl H. Lindner College of Business, our mission is to empower business problem solvers to tackle the world’s challenges.

We fuel professional growth through our distinctive combination of academic and hands-on experiences: our problem-solving mindset, cooperative education, flexible pathways, dynamic and supportive community, and vibrant, urban setting.

Lindner students recognize their leadership potential, elevate their skills and build their resumes, networks and confidence through experiential learning opportunities — the gold standard of which is co-op.

Through co-op, our students graduate with multiple, paid professional experiences through Lindner’s hundreds of employer partners. And those experiences pay off, with nearly 90% of our students securing full-time employment within three months of graduation.

Begin your business problem-solving journey today.
