About Us

Who we are

Our Mission

The Hispanic American Business Students Association (HABSA) is a student-led group at The Chicago Booth School of Business that serves as both a professional resource and peer network for Booth's Hispanic community.

Goals

  • Professional Development

We encourage and sponsor members to participate in industry related trainings, hold roundtables with experts and engage with staff and faculty to tailor events and curriculum.

  • Recruiting & Networking

We help members engage with a large network of alumni and interested firms. We provide recruiters with resume books, invite firms to roundtables and organize events with our sponsors throughout the year.

  • Booth Community

HABSA serves as a platform for personal development and social community. We partner with the Diversity Affairs office to promote awareness of Hispanic American Culture at Booth and work closely with the African-American MBA Association (AAMBAA) and other minority and affinity groups to support an inclusive and diverse environment.
