Department Overview:
The Business Study Cooperative (BSC) is an inclusive and collaborative learning environment for students who are looking for support and practice with the mathematical tools and methods used in core business courses. This space is designed to support learning, and we encourage students to think of it as open study hours. At the BSC we are all here to help each other and engage in collaborative problem solving. We ask that students come if they have questions they’d like to discuss, would like to form a study group, or would like to talk through the course material. We encourage students to make visiting the Study Cooperative part of their studying routine.The Business Study Cooperative (BSC) will be providing support for AIS 100, AIS 211, GB 306, GB 307, and FIN 300 from 4:00-6:00 pm Monday-Thursday on the second floor of the Learning Commons, 2210M/N. Student staff will be available to provide drop-in group tutoring for those courses during that time. Additionally, we will continue supporting students one-on-one both during our 4:00-6:00 pm hours and by request.
