Experiential learning opportunities

Experiential Learning brings the classroom to life through immersive, real world opportunities. Students participate to build their resumes, learn about career opportunities, and to build critical skills for success in the marketplace. ACU’s College of Business and Technology offers numerous diverse and relevant learning opportunities including:

• Wildcat Software
  • Learn firsthand what it is like to be a project manager or CEO of a busy software development firm. As a member of our student-run software company, you will gain skills and experience that will propel you into your career.
• ACM SIGCHI
  • Interested in the study of human computer interaction? Join ACU’s SIGCHI chapter to learn more about making usable technology and conduct research in this field.
• Research fellowships
  • A great way to prepare for graduate school is to become involved in research during your undergraduate years. Because of the smaller size of our programs and our emphasis on undergraduate education, our students are able to work on research side by side with their professors. This not only allows for students to have a job on campus, but also obtain research experience prior to their graduate school years. If you would like more information on available SITC Research Fellows positions, please email: sitc@acu.edu
• Springboard Ideas Challenge
  • If you are interested in starting your own business, or making your software idea a successful business venture, participating in the Springboard Ideas Challenge is a great place to start.
