Mission: The Experiential Learning Team provides overall support to students engaged in
experiential learning opportunities. Serving as a bridge between students’ academic preparation and
their career outcome, through constant communication, we empower students to discover and take
charge of their long-term career trajectory.
What We Do: We are student, employer, and campus-facing. We strive to help students navigate
experiential learning opportunities while working with internal and external constituents to ensure
these opportunities exist and continue to grow.
