Empowering Leaders

Empowering Leaders Symposium

Join us for the Empowering Leaders Symposium, a dynamic event dedicated to uplifting communities impacted by immigration policy. This symposium is a unique platform where students, staff, faculty, and community leaders can showcase their research, gain valuable insights, and develop professionally.
Highlights of the Symposium:

• Research Presentations: Students will have the opportunity to present their research projects on undocumented, immigration, and mixed-status communities while receiving feedback and engaging in meaningful discussions with peers and experts.
• Professional Development Workshops: Participants will engage in workshops designed to enhance their skills, from effective communication to advanced research methodologies.
• Entrepreneurship Sessions: Attendees will learn from successful entrepreneurs about the journey of turning ideas into thriving businesses regardless of immigration status. Discover how you can leverage your research and creativity to pursue entrepreneurial ventures.
• Networking Opportunities: Partakers will connect with fellow students, researchers, and industry professionals. Build a network that supports academic and professional growth regardless of immigration status.
