Associates in the CoBE Institute at Coastal Carolina University spent about three months working on a marketing and operations plan for a multi-national corporation. Those associates presented the results of their work to two executives of Pomì USA, who came to Coastal’s campus from New York.
Doing business consulting with real-world corporations is a hallmark of the CoBE Institute program. It prepares students for what they will face when they enter the workforce.
Sustainability in our Community:
Impactful, compassionate volunteering.

Students are really excited to be out here interacting with the community and really being a part of the solutions to stop plastic and other pollution.” - Cassie Ratliff, ‘17, Sustainability Coordinator, Sustain Coastal
Sustainability Efforts »
Around 30 Coastal Carolina University students recently left campus to support the Our Marsh Counts effort in Murrells Inlet. Our Marsh Counts is designed to assist in keeping the marsh clean and healthy. Those involved in the kickoff not only cleaned parts of the inlet but also cataloged the types and quantities of the materials that were collected. Sustain Coastal was the campus organization that led the effort on behalf of CCU. Many of the students who volunteered are pursuing degrees in fields that focus on sustainability and ocean waters.

That's one thing I'm grateful about CCU is how hands-on it is so it would be hands-on with the organism I'm studying in class. Invaluable.
