Join your cohort in an immersive learning experience as we Trek south to T&M Corporate Partners Caterpillar and Boeing. During our stay in St. Louis, we will also stop in for a third site visit with our friends at Emerson, as well as do a teambuilding activity as a group.
More than just tours, these visits set students up with the unique opportunity to network with alumni, shake hands with executives, and learn about the vast career opportunities and innovations happening at each company.
Students frequently site the Trek experiences as being a critical component in cohort building, starting the year off with some familiar faces and established peer relationships.
Final detailed itinerary, trek handbook and other final departure information will be provided early in August.
