Mindfulness is becoming a popular topic of study and practice in the realm of higher education. Educators are increasingly interested in bringing mindfulness practices into the classroom, but little is known about undergraduates' initial perceptions of mindfulness before such practices or interventions are introduced. The purpose of this exploratory sequential mixed-methods study was to assess undergraduate business management student levels of trait mindfulness and to explore their perceptions of mindfulness and its relationship to the study and practice of management. This study is situated upon three streams of literature: mindfulness in higher education, management education and workforce development, and the student voice in higher education. The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) was used to measure trait mindfulness in students enrolled in undergraduate management degree programs at a college of technology (n = 44) and to select participants (n = 8) for semi-structured interviews. The survey results indicated that the undergraduate management students in this study possess trait mindfulness levels that are on par with college students at other institutions, with non-traditional students, older students, and distance-learning students possessing the highest trait mindfulness scores. The qualitative findings suggest that students have a broader idea of what constitutes mindfulness than what is often defined in the research literature and in popular culture. In addition, while students were able to identify many ways in which mindfulness might (a) be a useful tool for managers and (b) be used or integrated into the business classroom, they expressed reservations about student receptivity. The results of this study suggest educators ought to consider ways to better align mindfulness education with student needs and with course and program outcomes.
