The Chicago Future Leaders Program offers UIC female students the opportunity to meet people in various industries to learn more about their professional roles and fields.
How it will work:
Thu, Feb 20 - Prep Session: A 2-hour session held on in a prestigious corporate downtown office. Program advisors will talk about what to expect, answer your questions, and help you feel ready for this awesome experience. Meet the fellow student participants also!
Tue, Mar 25- Workplace Immersion #1: this day-long immersion will give you “a day in the life” of a working professional at the American Red Cross, one of the world’s greatest disaster relief organizations. Learn more about what the Red Cross does, and what people who work for them do too.
Wed, Mar 26 (final date TBD)- Workplace Immersion #2: this second day-long immersion explores the roles of professionals at another organization (to be determined). While the layout of the day will be similar to Immersion #1, your experience at this new organization will give you an entirely different exposure to the working world.
