The SAIT Student Investment Management Trust (SIMT) is a wonderful opportunity for SAIT students to collaborate across disciplines on investment research and decisions and is an example of applied learning in action. Students involved in SIMT will build their analytical, communication and conflict management skills working directly with industry advisors, ensuring that SAIT graduates are career ready. Kudos to the student leaders, faculty and industry partners who have brought this opportunity to life.
