Business as usual doesn’t change the world. People do. Discover your impact at the Stiller School of Business.

An essential part of society, business is integrated into our everyday lives. From fair trade practices to how a different tax system might change society, you can contribute your skills to solve problems, add value and uncover hidden potential. Learn to think strategically and work cooperatively to lead to successful business outcomes AND change the world for the better. That’s Business Done Better.

From preparing and filing taxes for Burlington’s underserved communities to investing and managing a portion of our very own endowment at Champlain College, Stiller students graduate ready to for work, ready for life. A Stiller degree is a seamless combination of exceptional education and experience.

And just like the real world, you won’t do it alone. Your faculty will know your name, your strengths, your interests, and your areas for improvement. They’ll help you build skills through classes that include real client-based work. As you learn by doing, you’ll learn to think globally and freely, with confident curiosity.

Experience-Based Learning

At Stiller, you’ll build your expertise, portfolio, and professional network by doing starting on day one. Alongside the Upside-Down Curriculum, our business degree programs are designed to get our students doing real-world experiences earlier and often, with room to study (or even intern) abroad. Because doing better starts with DOING.

Professional Experience

Get your foot in the door by stepping out of the classroom. Most Stiller majors require an internship as part of their curriculum. Why? Because in today’s marketplace, it’s critical for students to enter the workforce with a proven track record of experience and industry understanding.

In fact, over the last six years, 97% of all Stiller graduates participated in at least one internship while at Champlain. Because they know that when it comes to their future careers, there’s no substitute for experience.
