A red dart hits dead center on a dart board.

Understanding the Bull’s Eye Award

The Bull’s Eye Award represents the pinnacle of student engagement and proficiency in applying business concepts. Awarded to the most adept teams in the Capstone Business Strategy Game, it benchmarks success in a way that resonates beyond the classroom, directly into the heart of industry standards.

A Unique Competitive Edge

What sets SPC apart is the real-world relevance of the Bull’s Eye Award. Unlike typical academic accolades, it is anchored in the practical application of business strategies, mirroring the complexities and competitive nature of the corporate world.

This real-time simulation and resultant recognition provide SPC students with a tangible edge in the job market.

The Architects of the Award

Initiated by forward-thinking faculty, the Bull’s Eye Award has evolved through the contributions of engaged alumni like Jeff Mowry. His involvement highlights the continuous loop between academic preparation and professional success that the award fosters.
