Student Experiential Learning

Support Experiences that Shape Futures!

Some of the most meaningful learning experiences happen outside of a classroom. Your support helps Utah State students participate in internships, professional conferences, research opportunities, study experiences, service projects, fieldwork, and other hands-on learning opportunities that prepare them for life after graduation.

Your gift will support a general fund that will be used to support students with costs related to experiential learning.

Your gift helps provide:

• Access to internships, conferences, research, and hands-on learning experiences
• Financial support that removes barriers to student participation
• Opportunities to build confidence, expand perspectives, and connect classroom learning to real-world success

Whether it's traveling to a conference, completing an internship, presenting research, or participating in a unique educational opportunity, your gift helps students gain the experiences that shape careers and change lives. Your gift helps Aggies turn learning into opportunity and potential into achievement.

• Your gift will be used only for the above-stated purpose if the required minimum expendable level of $10,000 is met by December 31, 2031. If not met, the gift will be moved to a general fund with a similar purpose.

Any such new purpose shall be defined by USU’s President and Vice President of Student Success.
