As part of the Future Business Leaders of America Region 3 Leadership Conference held at IUP for high school students on December 16, 2024, the Department of Finance and Economics offered breakout sessions.
IUP alumnus Dominic Rocco ’23 and IUP student Gabe Kengersky presented an overview of the IUP Student Managed Investment Portfolio and the Bloomberg technology opportunities that are available to all IUP students beginning in their freshmen year. Both Rocco and Kengersky had advanced through various SMIP student leadership positions, and both had served as Bloomberg Lab student managers.
FBLA Region 3 participating area school districts include Brookville, Homer-Center, Indiana, Ligonier Valley, Marion Center, Penns Manor, Purchase Line, River Valley, United, and West Shamokin.
It was a great opportunity to connect the past, present, and future across our alumni, current students, and prospective students attending this FBLA conference!
