In September 2012, Professor Lorraine

Eden and the students in her

MGMT/INTA 663 International Transfer

Pricing course at Texas A&M University

decided to prepare a STUDENT PROFILE

BOOK to highlight those students who were taking or

had taken MGMT/INTA 663 and were looking for

placement in transfer pricing, taxation, valuation or

related careers.

Twenty-seven students are included in this first

STUDENT PROFILE BOOK. Each student has signed a

FERPA release form, allowing public release of their

information for purposes of job placement.

If your firm is interested in employing one or more of

these students please contact them directly using

their email, phone or LinkedIn information.

Questions about the Profile Book or about transfer

pricing at Texas A&M should be directed to Prof.

Lorraine Eden at [email protected]. For more info, see
