Student Projects: Talk to a member of our Employer Engagement team about opportunities to develop a course-based project with teams of students and faculty oversight.
Niner Challenges: develop creative ways to provide students with experience while also developing your future talent pipeline. Hack-a-thons, Case Competitions, Skills Challenges, or other ways to gamify skill development.
