We’re thrilled to introduce a new initiative designed to spark creativity, collaboration, and career readiness across our campus: Curriculum to Career: Connecting Curriculum with Career Competencies. This pilot program offers a unique opportunity to create meaningful, co-curricular experiences for our students—linking what they’re learning in the classroom with real-world career competencies that will help them succeed beyond York. 

 

Through this initiative, we’re providing $1,200 in funding per project from a total pilot budget of $25,000 to support innovative ideas that align with NACE Career Readiness Competencies (like Critical Thinking, Communication, Leadership, and more). 

 

Why should you get involved? 

·         Enhance student success by linking coursework to hands-on career experiences. 

·         Fuel collaboration across departments and campus partnerships. 

·         Support exploration of majors and career outcomes in innovative ways. 

·         Receive funding to cover speaker honorariums, field trips, materials, and more. 

 

 

The deadline to submit proposals is Friday, December 6, 2024 – 11:59pm.

 

Best regards,
