St. Bonaventure couldn’t exist without the support of its alumni. A new way that alumni can support the university is also a way for alumni to support their employees — and it doesn’t cost a dime.
SBU’s Corporate Partners Program allows employees at participating corporations or organizations — as well as their spouses — to enroll in any of the following fully online St. Bonaventure graduate programs and receive a 15% discount on their tuition:
- Master of Business Administration
- Master of Science in Business Analytics
- Master of Arts in Communication
- Master of Arts in Digital Journalism
- Master of Arts in Sports Journalism
- Master of Arts in Leadership
- Master of Science in Cybersecurity
Thirteen corporations have already partnered with the university, including New Era, M&T Bank, Six Flags, Terex, Cutco, EnergyMark, Greenlight, Hewlett Packard, Rich’s, Toshiba, Upper Allegheny Health System, Merchants Insurance Group and Kaleida Health.
“We’d love to have more businesses or organizations with strong Bonaventure ties take part in the program,” said Dr. Michael Hoffman, dean of the School of Graduate Studies. “The beauty is, there is no cost to take part so it’s a win-win for your employees and for us.”
As part of an organization’s participation in the program, all the university asks is for the ability to promote the partnership on SBU’s social media platforms and permission to use an organization’s name/logo on the university’s corporate partnership webpage.
To help facilitate the success of a company’s employees as they balance professional, academic and personal demands, each student receives a success coach, faculty adviser, access to online library services and the option of writing support services, Hoffman said.
Alumni who can speak directly about the potential for a partnership should contact Hoffman at mhoffman@sbu.edu or (716) 375-2530.
“If there is another member of your organization with whom I should speak, please let me know,” Hoffman said. “I’d very much appreciate an introduction.”
