Connect with Students

While some of our faculty utilize occasional guest speakers, the rigor of our programs demands that classroom time be spent primarily on academic activities. Center staff can recommend the optimal activities for each employer鈥檚 needs, including possible faculty connections.
The marketing strategy for your activities will be customized as well. The CRC will create targeted emails, newsletter inclusion, social media blasts and notification timed appropriately for your event or activity.
