Experiences
This campaign priority aims to provide our students with the best possible experience during their time on campus. É«ÖÐÉ« matches its students with meaningful internships, field experiences, and research projects. These career-relevant, hands-on experiences cultivate leadership and teamwork skills that will serve our students beyond their time at É«ÖÐÉ« and into the global landscape where they will thrive in a world of change.
To support their future, our goal is $14,800,000
