While much attention is given <span id="docs-internal-guid-d8a24ad9-429e-7392-f6ac-c9fa79884750"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I have chosen to deploy knowledge and access to Bloomberg Terminals across campus and across disciplines. The Bloomberg Terminal has been called the concept most powerful machine in business. The terminal has over 50% of an ‘Academic Silo’, there exists a similar effect between Industry and the Academic world as a wholemarket share among financial data services. The College of Business at Tennessee Technological University has a Career Services department that facilitates Co-operative Education (Co-op), and internship experiencesrecently acquired approximately 10 of these machines. I believe these are excellent avenues for students My vision is to gain real experience and learningsee other Colleges within the University take advantage of this incredible technology by utilizing the terminal in the context of their discipline. However, great benefit could be provided with shorter term opportunities. Excursions / Field Trips will be set up with My initiative is to hold trainings for different companies, for students of all majors. Organizations from all areas will be consideredacademic groups. Trips will be organized for classesFor instance, departments, and colleges, with overlap between eachthe Bloomberg Terminals have mapping functions that use file formats only used within the GIST community. Various companies will be chosen by departmental interestBloomberg has a team dedicated to GIST training. The students will get first student group I would like to train is the chance to job shadow people from their area of study, and Graduate Students from other disciplinesour distinguished Water Research Center. As a prelude to this experiential learningFuture trainings will at first be based on interest, employees which has been shown from such a company will come to the University Department of Earth Sciences and talk to student groupsthe Department of Chemistry.</span></span>
