What is Experiential Education?

Experiential Learning consists of opportunities that allow for students to learn outside of the classroom.  This learning provides students the chance to apply academic principles in real world situations by gaining experiences and skill sets. 

Depending on the industry, employers are expecting students to leave their university experiences not only with well rounded academic prowess, but skill sets gained from the world of work.  See which area will best fit you by clicking on the topical areas to the left.
