Student goals and capabilities

Students are seeking opportunities to work collaboratively and share different insights into communication and marketing. This course aims to increase students' awareness of how the skills and information learned at university apply to the real world outside of the classroom. As a result, we are seeking to facilitate student engagement with the public and private sectors during the students' time in the degree. These students are 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students in their beginning year of study. The virtual volunteer opportunity will prepare them better to gain exposure to real life communication and marketing problems in the workforce.
