DEEP Day

The Delaware Executive Exchange Program (DEEP) Day, sponsored by the College of Business at Delaware State University, is designed to develop students’ soft skills and help prepare them to become qualified business professionals.

In the College of Business, our top priority is to ensure that students receive a quality education and are empowered with the academic and professional competencies needed to succeed in today’s global workplace. Each student has an Individual Development Plan (IDP) built on the Business Education Student Transformation (BEST) model. The BEST model creates a roadmap for student success that includes soft skills development, mentoring, conferences, field trips, business case competitions, internships, and job placement.

To support this mission, the DEEP Day agenda provides students with relevant knowledge and practical experiences in areas such as driving innovation, collaboration and teamwork, personal branding, and the art of the interview. DEEP Day helps lead students along a co-curricular pathway that prepares them to transition from the Delaware State University classroom to the executive boardroom.

College of Business students are given the opportunity to build on their academic foundation and expand their experiences with a focus on career readiness. DEEP Day is a premier event that supports students on their journey toward becoming successful business executives with a global perspective.
