About

At PLNU’s Fermanian Business & Economic Institute (FBEI), we have a forward-thinking approach to business.

The FBEI approach is collaborative and strategic, and most importantly, it is practical.  It is what gives PLNU students an edge to provide solutions in ever-changing business and economic environments.  Our business partners seek us out for interns, employees, and consulting.  Join us as we forge business relationships, organize networking events, and sponsor programs to prepare the next generation of business leaders for a dynamic marketplace.

FBEI Mission Statement: “To provide our students, alumni, and constiuents with a relevant business and economic voice to meet the demands of a dynamic marketplace.”
