About the program
Transforming the student employment experience by aligning student’s on-campus job
with career goals.
Learn + Earn is a career readiness program that enhances students' employment experiences,
prepares them for dynamic job markets after graduation, and sets them up for long-term
success. It encourages and supports sophomore, junior, and senior students as they
complete their undergraduate degrees, regardless of major.
L+E provides opportunities for students to understand their career goals, explore
and build career-adjacent skills, and receive professional polishing to graduate career-ready.
Program benefits
Discovery though self-paced learning and 1:1 coaching.
L+E participants benefit from compensated professional development training and regular
meetings with Career Coaches. Additionally, participants are eligible for summer support
scholarships that can be applied towards summer school tuition and preparation classes
for professional exams (e.g., the GRE, MCAT, and LSAT).
The professional development program focuses on building career-focused skills, such
as problem-solving, critical thinking, and taking initiative. Through workshops, module
training, and 1:1 coaching, students will acquire skills to better prepare them for
professional work environments. Modules are built so that students can participate
at their own pace, with requirements to complete each semester.
