TRU and the Bob Gaglardi School of Business and Economics provided me with opportunities to further my education outside of the traditional classroom. From attending speaker panel events to learn from and network with professionals in the financial services industry to volunteering with Enactus TRU and representing our university regionally and nationally, I gained valuable skills to succeed in my career.

Twenty-two years ago, Tianjin University of Technology expanded its reach through our joint Bachelor of Business Administration program offered in collaboration with the Bob Gaglardi School of Business and Economics at TRU. Together, we have walked a long way, and I believe our partnership will only continue to thrive. It is thanks to TRU’s and TUT’s joint efforts that thousands of graduates get to see the world and embark on an educational adventure of a lifetime.

The City of Kamloops was delighted to be able work with the Bob Gaglardi School of Business and Economics on the book, A Study of the Value of Kamloops Parks. The information is now used as key research as we develop our Parks Master Plan in 2024. The City has benefited from having access to the sharp minds of the students and academic professionals of TRU!
