Hello! My name is Jack McGivern, and I am a Junior here at Pitt, double-majoring in Business Analytics and Supply Chain Management. Here on campus, I am actively involved in my fraternity, Delta Sigma Phi, as part of its executive board. I am deeply interested in Business Analytics, as I have always had a passion for technology. I am also interested in Supply Chain Management, as I worked in a restaurant for 5 years and got familiar with how they purchased and utilized inventory.
I am very excited and grateful for this opportunity, as I was unable to attend for the last 2 years. I believe this opportunity is perfect for me as I can see more of the world and build my knowledge in an industry that I find fascinating. While I don’t know if I will go into the automotive industry in particular, I do think that seeing such an impactful global supply chain will open my eyes to career paths I could not even think of before.
Additionally, I am excited to see just how beautiful Germany is! While we have looked at many pictures in advance of places we will be going, I am sure that they are only more breathtaking in person. I am also excited to work in teams with the students in Germany and get to know them as well! I cannot wait to start this experience!
