Experience-driven learning and career preparation

At Western, the start of a student’s career isn’t reserved until after graduation. Broncos start building their resumes, exploring their passions and developing real-world knowledge and experience while earning their degrees. All students have access to unique experience-driven learning opportunities and internships, which they can stagger throughout their time here.

Professional industry experience while still in school

Bobby Snell, B.F.A.‘21, launched two product patents to market while earning a product design degree from Western’s Richmond Institute of Design. After graduating, he landed a job as an industrial designer at BARK in New York City.

WMU Cold Case Program

A first-of-its-kind partnership

As part of her criminal justice studies degree, Jayla Williams, B.A.‘23, worked alongside Michigan State Police detectives to help crack multiple cold cases, which ultimately inspired her to pursue law school. The WMU Cold Case Program’s success has garnered national media attention, including a feature on the Today Show.

Undergraduate students enjoy a wide variety of opportunities to earn resumeworthy experience and get paid while in school through both the Broncos Lead Internship Program and other work experience opportunities like co-ops. wmich.edu/career

Empowering Futures

Relentlessly focused on student success

Western Michigan University is creating a new era of student success with the support of the $550 million Empowering Futures Gift, the largest gift for a public university in U.S. history. Its programs remove barriers and provide support on the journey to graduation.

“We call it the Empowering Futures Gift because at its core is our donors’ belief that inclusive education empowers people and communities to create a bright future for all.”

Ensuring access

The Bronco Promise provides a tuition-free education for up to five years for Michigan undergraduate students with significant financial need. See page 17 for eligibility.

The Bronco Connect Scholarship supports Michigan undergraduate students with significant financial need by funding up to half the cost of on-campus housing and food for up to the first two years at Western.

The Broncos Lead Internship Program provides students with paid, high-quality applied experiences at small businesses, nonprofits and start-ups.

Belonging through community

Recipients of the Bronco Connect Scholarship live in a living learning community, which focuses on creating tight connections among students, exploration of diversity and inclusion, and programs that lead to purpose and a meaningful career.

The Navigator Network is a universitywide web of professional staff and student employees who provide students the right help at the right time through one-on-one connection. Individual support and resources address each student’s unique success needs. Navigators make it easy for students to connect with campus resources, perform well academically, get questions answered and strengthen their academic, physical, social and emotional well-being.

—President Edward Montgomery

Strong mind, strong body, strong spirit
