UM Faculty Connect Students and Industry Leaders
Online info session scheduled July 30 for UM faculty to explore new opportunities
Travel is off, but Study USA is still on and we’re looking for faculty members interested in offering virtual programs that bring experts and experiences from across the country together to broaden UM students’ knowledge and networks.
This summer two faculty members made the switch and share special topics in their academic field with students from many different academic backgrounds.
Students in both programs expressed appreciation for the ability to connect with a number of experts at all levels in a more private setting. The Zoom interface allowed students the facetime to learn from these guest speakers and the comfort-level to ask questions and to reach out after the visits for more information and/or opportunities.
Now it’s your turn to get creative and think wide about making the impossible possible.
Imagine a class where location has no limits.
Imagine a class where technology takes your students behind the scenes of cutting-edge industries and professions.
Imagine a class that is a launchpad for your majors to access internships and find their first professional positions.
