Jain Industry Partnerships Program

The Jain Industry Partnerships Program is a pilot program to introduce Stamps students to creative careers and creative possibilities in sectors they may not have considered (corporate, government, etc.). This program is made possible by a generous donation from Anurag Jain, MBA ‘95.

While any Stamps student may apply for the pilot program, first- and second-year students will be given preference. The program consists of:

  • Six lectures or workshops in the Winter 2024 semester
  • Individual mentoring with corporate employees in participating organizations (monthly minimum)

You must apply and be accepted into the program. Please note that all of the time commitments are on Friday afternoons in the Winter 2024 semester, so selected students may not schedule a class at that time.

  • December 6, 2024: Mandatory orientation to the program
  • Additional Winter 2025 dates will be added soon; lecture and workshop topics are currently under consideration.

Please note that in addition to the selected students for the program, all students are welcome to attend the larger lectures. Only selected students for the program will attend the workshops due to space constraints.

How to Apply

The application will open from August 26 to October 6, 2024. Selected students will be notified by an announcement in mid-October 2024. We anticipate about 20 to 30 students will be selected for this year’s cohort.

Benefits for Students

  • Connect with recruiters, current professionals, and industry leaders in corporate and other sectors.
  • Acquire skills and knowledge about careers and pathways in the corporate and other sectors that they may not otherwise know about.
  • The opportunity to network with, and connect with, mentors who can guide them and prepare them for positions in their industry.

Participating Industry Partners

New partners for the 2024-25 cycle will be added soon; you can view a list of our 2023-24 partners here.

Faculty Champion

The program will be run by Stamps Faculty Champion Seder Burns, who will assist in running workshops and lectures and coordinate with Stamps faculty and participating organizations.
