Campus Advocacy & Education
This program connects students with Diverse Business Enterprises to build employment and economic growth opportunities. We place students in internships that complement their skill sets and the needs of partnering businesses.
This initiative ensures local and small Diverse Business Enterprises receive fair opportunities to bid on smaller UAB projects. These projects are typically limited in scope, consist of interior renovations, and are $50,000 or less.
We educate students, be proactive in developing active partnerships between UAB and Diverse Business Enterprises. We understand when the local economy does well, its a win-win for UAB and local businesses.
