The AIM (Association for International Markets) General Body Meeting on January 23, 2007, focused on enhancing students' understanding of foreign markets. Each year, AIM selects a specific country to examine its economic, political, social, and cultural facets. This knowledge is supplemented by an international trip allowing members to engage directly with local business professionals. Committees dedicated to International, Domestic, Finance, Human Resources, and Marketing initiatives plan events and workshops, fostering learning and networking opportunities among students.

AIM General Body Meeting January 23, 2007
Our Mission AIM strives to educate students on campus about foreign markets. By selecting a specific country each year, members explore the economic, political, social, and cultural aspects of the given market. These aspects are studied on campus, and are complemented by a yearly international trip during which students learn directly from the business people who live and work in the country.
