C21 Story Institute Open Slots

Submitted by Caterina Rost on April 18, 2017 - 10:33am

There are still several slots open in the C21 Story Institute for applicants from a broad range of undergraduates majoring in all four divisions of the Arts & Sciences! This 12-credit summer intensive is open to students of any class standing. Any questions, please   contact c21info@uw.edu.

ABOUT THE C21 STORY INSTITUTE:

The C21 Story Institute will immerse students in a four-week, 8am-5pm “bootcamp” with partnering employers that uses story skills to integrate learning experiences with career preparation.  Students will be working in teams on employer challenge projects (where students will work as “ consultants” for actual partnering organizations) with career skill development integrated in,  so that when students are ready to enter the work force they’ll hit the ground running.
