Gain Experience Your Way

Experiential learning is an active and transformative way to practice and apply your coursework to real world activities, problems, and organizations, then reflect upon the connections to your own understanding, skills, and growth.

Employers and professional schools are eager for candidates who bring a strong academic background as well as a range of skills that may be developed through experiential learning.

Gaining experience, coupled with academic success, leads to more opportunities after graduation.
