These activities include participation in student clubs, academic and other competitions, as well as career events, such as tours, industry visits to USU and career fairs. The roles students take on are far beyond that of student, but of a learner, linking to instructors and industry, and leadership opportunities for service learning. Finally, the relationships students create from this networking builds matches with future employers, membership in professional organizations/clubs, and connection with mentors to help them find their passion, preparation and confidence to be successful students.
