UT Outpost Update

The UT Outpost is doing free food deliveries to students’ homes if they fill out the delivery request form. This resource could be really helpful for students still in Austin and struggling with food insecurity. Students report that food packages contain a variety of items, such as oatmeal, fruits, canned goods, etc..

IE PreGrad Internship Innovations (CMS364M)

The IE Pre-Graduate School Internship provides undergraduates with an immersive experience of being in graduate school, empowering them to explore graduate school and the career options it makes possible. Undergrad Interns are paired with graduate student mentors and/or faculty advisors who guide their internship. Benefits of the Internship include:

  • Experiencing first-hand what it’s like to be in graduate school.
  • Discovering the opportunities a graduate degree provides.
  • Developing skills necessary to succeed in graduate school.
  • Creating materials that make an appealing graduate school applicant.
  • Learning how to stay resilient and build a career in the current economy.

Note: (1) It can definitely be completed virtually, (2) Students can participate even if they haven’t secured a mentor, and (3) Workshops will now feature content about staying resilient and navigating what may be a very uncertain landscape

For help finding a mentor/advisor or options if you can’t find one, please contact Dr. Tommy Darwin, IE Director at tdarwin@austin.utexas.edu OR call/text 512-468-7246
