Connections

The GEE program will create opportunities for students that will allow them to gain valuable experience, develop leadership and problem-solving skills, meet community and business leaders, and create powerful relationships to build upon in the future. The Cohort-based program allows students to work, grow, and achieve success together. The peer-to-peer networks created through the program allows students to build networks that extend beyond the boundaries of the classroom into the broader community through interactions with faculty, speakers, and mentors. The goal is to generate and support a community that extends beyond the original scope of the program.
