对你的ODU体验负责!
Every semester, you're taking classes that help you to learn the fundamentals of your major. While you're focusing on learning all of this content, who's focusing on helping you figure out what it all means for YOU and your goals?
LeADERS allows you to get the most out of your time at ODU and prepare you for life after graduation. First, we help you to find and complete high-impact courses and experiences that explore areas related to 领导, 应用工作学习, 多样性, 创业, 研究, 及服务学习. Then, we guide you in taking these experiences one step further and personalize them to your goals after graduation. 作为一名领导者毕业生, you'll leave ODU with a comprehensive ePortfolio that showcases your emerging professional identity, 强调关键技能和经验, 并展示你的成就. Which means that you’ll be able to confidently tell interviewers exactly what you know, 你怎么知道的？, and how your ODU education prepared you to be the best fit for that position.
It's our way of living up to our tagline: High Impact 学习 for a High Impact Future. 成为领导者! 提交此表格加入►
