Robert J. Trulaske, Sr. College of Business

The Trulaske Scholars program is made up of prominent business student leaders who have the unique opportunity to meet with regional business leaders including the Trulaske family, who continues to be involved in the Trulaske College of Business. The Trulaske family includes generations of alums and are the proud owners of TRUE Manufacturing, one of the world’s leaders and trusted names in commercial refrigeration. 

Trulaske Scholars have access to unique opportunities to meet with executives and see businesses in action. A corporate site visit trip every other fall to visit TRUE Manufacturing headquarters in St. Louis includes meetings with executives, a detailed tour of all facilities, first hand experience on seeing how every part of the product is made from start to finish and how a successful company is built and runs from the inside out. Students also take a corporate site visit trip to Kaldi’s Coffee headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri, to see inside a small, rapidly growing company and hear from top execs.

You can apply to become a member of the Trulaske Scholars if you are an incoming or continuing Mizzou business student pursuing an emphasis in Accounting, Marketing, Management, Economics or Finance and Banking. This renewable scholarship assists very good students who do not meet the qualifications for Bright Flight, or the Curator, Excellence and Brooks Scholarships.
