Experiential learning
Gifts will ensure all undergraduates have an outstanding educational experience that prepares them for the future.
Invest in tomorrow’s scientists and engineers
Our goal - $15 million
Experiential learning opportunities boost student success and prepare them for life after graduation. By creating community, encouraging collaboration, and providing hands-on projects, student can apply what they've learned in the classroom to real-world projects.
Every College of Science and Engineering (CSE) student deserves the chance to apply their skills outside the classroom:
- Internships and co-ops bring students into the workplace
- Research with faculty builds new competencies and fosters discovery.
- Study abroad prepares students for the global marketplace.
- CSE's first-year experience introduces students to creative experimentation.
- Open student project spaces enable collaboration between disciplines.
- Student groups like Engineers Without Borders and the Society of Women Engineers offer students in-depth engagement activities and foster leadership development.
Gifts for experiential learning will create more opportunities for CSE students to enrich their education, apply academic principles to hands-on projects, and be fully prepared for tomorrow's workforce.
