About the Medallion Program
The Medallion Program is coordinated by the Lee Ambassadors and is a program open to all undergraduate students of the Lee Business School that have been admitted to their upper-division business major. The program is designed to engage students outside the classroom through workshops and events that will benefit their future career and professional goals. The program is committed to offering at least two speaker events and two career and networking events per semester to help students achieve this goal. Students will learn from top business executives from a variety of different companies. Students will gain hands-on career preparation through resume building, networking with professionals, and exploring different industries. Upon completing all of the requirements, students will be awarded their medallion during their graduating semester.
