Class of Fall 2024: College of Business graduate Lamyah Burhani stuxbury Wed, 12/18/2024 - 05:29

Lamyah Burhani remembers coming to 51��Ƶ-Dearborn as a high school student and mentally making notes of the campus environment, the welcoming feeling she experienced and knowing she wanted to say yes to as many opportunities as possible.

Three and a half years later — yes, she graduated in less than four — Burhani has completed four internships, traveled out of state for an Alpha Kappa Psi conference as the 51��Ƶ-Dearborn chapter president, studied in Italy through the university’s Study Abroad program and more. She says these experiences helped grow her confidence.

“I chose 51��Ƶ-Dearborn because, as cheesy as this sounds, it felt home-y. It could also give me the education I wanted and was the best financial decision. What I didn’t realize is how much the past few years would bring me out of my shell and help me learn how to be secure in myself and my abilities and to speak up,” says Burhani, a Canton resident double majoring in marketing and supply chain management. “Being at 51��Ƶ-Dearborn has helped me become a leader.”

She joined Alpha Kappa Psi her first year, after attending the university’s Winter Involvement Fair. When she became president at the end of that year, Burhani transitioned the business fraternity back to in-person activities following the pandemic. She reorganized the student organization’s space in Fairlane Center North and looked for ways to create community. She planned fun and career-focused events on campus while promoting business development opportunities, which included the AKPsi Elevate Conference in Chicago.

Burhani says not only did her time in the fraternity and exploring resources help her meet new friends, these activities also connected her to 51��Ƶ-Dearborn leaders who had expertise in career development. Of particular note, Burhani mentions 51��Ƶ-Dearborn’s career fairs and resume workshops, as well as the COB course Business Administration 300, taught by Business Administration Lecturer Rita Agius, which introduces students to career-securing strategies. Agius is also the senior internship program manager in COB’s Business Career Center.

“I was so impressed that there was a course that focused on all things career development. We talked about resumes, job searches, marketing ourselves, writing professionally and anything you can think of that will make you a stronger candidate. It definitely enhanced my professional growth,” Burhani says. “The career training and network you can get at 51��Ƶ-Dearborn is really incredible.”

Burhani, who plans to focus on the supply chain management side of her degree and is currently weighing her available opportunities, says the Business Career Center helped her find three of her four internships. She completed two supply chain management internships, at Detroit Manufacturing Systems and Tenneco, as well as a marketing internship at The Mushroom Angel Company, located in Detroit’s Eastern Market. “I started going to 51��Ƶ-Dearborn career fairs as a freshman. At the time, I went just to go. I didn’t know if it would help me or not. It did. I want to encourage students, even during their first year, to go. And then keep going,” she says. “You build relationships year after year. You learn about the companies, meet the representatives and make connections. Then you can decide what you want to work toward.”

Burhani says she did not originally intend to major in supply chain management, but Operations Management Lecturer Laura Birou noticed her talent and encouraged her to consider it as a career path. Not only does the supply chain field have a double-digit projection for growth — the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that employment of supply chain management professionals will grow by 30% from 2020 to 2030 — Burhani also finds it highly intriguing.

“I came to college planning to have a career in marketing. I love marketing and will apply the skills I gained in my marketing classes to my career, but I learned that I have a talent for numbers, organizing and attention to detail that I didn’t realize,” Burhani says. “Knowing that I had a part in getting something in the right quantity where it needs to be on time is something I find fulfilling.” In addition to the automotive field, Burhani is interested in working in healthcare, where many of the supplies are potentially life-saving.

Reflecting on the past three-plus years, Burhani says her time in college also gave her an opportunity to travel to Italy through the International Summer Program in Management at the University of Padua. During the five-week program, she took business classes at the University of Padua with Italian students, while also traveling the country. She saw the Colosseum in Rome, rode in a gondola in Venice and saw Michelangelo’s David in Florence. “I’ve never lived away from home before. I got to do that, meet friends from Italy that I still talk with, and do things I only thought I’d be able to see in books or social media,” she says. “I also saw how the world is much bigger than just me or what’s happening right now. I knew that, but to see it through so many layers of history was humbling.”

Nearing the end of her 51��Ƶ-Dearborn undergraduate experience, Burhani says the welcoming, home-y feeling never left. Sitting in her favorite chair in Fairlane's student organization space recently while taking it all in, Burhani says she’s ready for what’s next.

“51��Ƶ-Dearborn is such a special place. The people here want you to go out into the world and succeed, but they also encourage you to leave a legacy here,” she reflects. “Thanks to the people I’ve met and the things I was able to accomplish while at 51��Ƶ-Dearborn, I know I’ll be able to do both.”

Robert Bosch North America, 51��Ƶ-Dearborn partner for innovation event

Robert Bosch North America, 51��Ƶ-Dearborn partner for innovation event Anonymous (not verified) Sat, 01/07/2023 - 11:20

Focused around the theme of smart technologies in everyday life—like the home, car and workplace—Robert Bosch North America (RBNA) employees and University of Michigan-Dearborn students moved excitedly around the tables, sipping coffee and sharing ideas.

They were equipped with computer hardware, sensors, motors, building materials, boards, sticky notes, pens, microphones. And, most importantly, ingenuity.

College of Business and College of Engineering and Computer Science students were invited to join the multinational engineering and electronics company’s RBNA Hackathon, which took place this summer. The hackathon is a way for Bosch employees to engage in creation of novel ideas and collaborate in development of minimally viable prototypes.

Prior to the hackathon, a series of mini events were held for Bosch associates and students to prepare. Events included workshops focused on creativity, collaboration, business models and public speaking, a technical training series, and a weekly question and answer session via Skype.

RBNA Director of Business Development Estella Woo and Manager of Corporate Strategy Preetinder Gill said this was the first time Bosch associates joined forces with students from 51��Ƶ-Dearborn for the hackathon. The event drew 85 people, including 25 51��Ƶ-Dearborn students and about 60 Bosch associates across 10 business areas.

“Diversity of thought generates better ideas and it gives the teams a more rounded perspective,” Woo said.

51��Ƶ-Dearborn students were invited after Gill reached out to iLabs Director Tim Davis at the urging of Bosch intern Breann Guerin. Guerin, a digital marketing major, had taken Davis’ Entrepreneurial Thinking course.

Davis had hoped 10 students would participate, since it was summer. But the response was almost overwhelming as 25 students signed up within a week. The students were undergraduate and graduate from various majors across campus.

“They understood what a fantastic opportunity this is,” said Davis, who noted the administrative offices of College of Business, College of Engineering and Computer Science, and the Talent Gateway reached out to students. “Not only are they given tools to code and create. Each student was also paired with a group of Bosch employees. So, for our students, there was mentoring and networking too.”

Above, 51��Ƶ-Dearborn students who partnered with Bosch employees to come up with the idea “iSee Tomorrow,” received the Award of Excellence for Outstanding Commitment to Drive Innovation.

Hearing about this opportunity through the Talent Gateway, Likith Manjegowda said he saw working with employees at the largest automotive supplier in the world as a learning experience on creating well-developed projects.

“I really wanted to put my ideas into practice, and the Bosch Hackathon was the right platform to start off and bring my ideas to reality,” said Manjegowda, who is studying mechanical engineering. “I now understand what needs to be addressed to convert an idea into a product.”

Manjegowda’s group—made of three Bosch associates and two 51��Ƶ-Dearborn students—came up with the idea “iSee Tomorrow,” a smart cane device that uses infrastructure sensors to help the seeing-impaired maneuver through cities.

For their idea and presentation, the team received the Award of Excellence for Outstanding Commitment to Drive Innovation.

Gill said he was very impressed with both the focus on innovation and the ideas of the 51��Ƶ-Dearborn students.

“Some of the best students come from the University of Michigan. This hackathon has only reinforced this,” Gill said. “Their ideas are fresh and relevant. We are happy to have them here.”

Students shared how grateful they were for the knowledge that Bosch associates shared with them. Manjegowda said it went beyond the coding or business models they had learned.

“What I learned at Bosch will help me create viable solutions for people who need the aid of technology to lead a better life,” Manjegowda said.
