Experiences
CyStarters – Students and recent graduates can participate in an 11-week accelerator program and work on their startup or business idea.
LAS college-by-college pitch offs – Students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences compete for cash prizes, as they give a 90-second pitch about an innovative idea or venture.
Networking events – Get to know peers and professionals at events like Sharkuterie Connections, where students judge elevator speeches by local businesses – while enjoying charcuterie board delights.
Undergraduate research – From fighting disease to exploring ancient civilizations, you can engage in innovative research with LAS faculty.
Not only did [CyStarters] give me educational sessions and professional meetings with attorneys and things of that nature for free, but they also gave me money to fund my organization and business.
