Testimonials
"
C&S provides tremendous opportunities to develop your career. The hands on experiences are challenging and rewarding, especially as you see the real life implications of your work. Living and working in Keene is similar to attending Cornell. Not only is the surrounding area beautiful; there are ample opportunities to learn and apply critical thinking skills. Developing value-added services for my first rotation provided insight to the new product development cycle and the subsequent work that goes into a sales pitch. Implementing continuous improvement processes during my second rotation taught me methodology to tackle tough issues and apply sustainable solutions. Project managing start-ups during my third rotation has provided great exposure to the entire procurement process, as well as the supporting work throughout the company to make the start-up a success. The BA Program has continued to be a dynamic and exciting community that I love being a part of, just like Cornell. "

"
At Cornell, I studied Operations Research and became passionate about solving supply chain problems. I moved to Keene and found myself in the middle of grocery supply chain world. I spent my first three years at C&S working in Procurement solving forecasting, purchasing, and inventory planning problems. I worked on system development, reporting, analytics, and supply chain planning that helped us improve our inventory and customer service performance. For the last eighteen months, I’ve been working in Facility Planning & Automation working on large strategic projects involving new customers and warehouse automation. C&S has turned out to be the best place to begin my career. I’ve learned more over the last four years than I could have ever imagined and I’ve fallen in love with Keene. The outdoor environment offers skiing, cycling, running, and hiking and it’s made my personal life just as fulfilling as my professional life. "
