These alliances form a powerful base which has the ability to propel the University's level of excellence in teaching, research and service. Financial support and internship opportunities are enhancing the student experience, research and development are forged to greater heights, and organizations benefit from marketing, recruiting future employees, and educational opportunities.At St. Mary's, Corporate Relations builds mutually-beneficial relationships between the University and the public, private and voluntary sectors to advance the teaching, research and service mission of our University
Goal
The goal of the Corporate Partners Program is to engage corporations of all sizes with St. Mary's University through their time, talent and treasure. Companies, depending on the level of support, are given opportunities to interact with students and alumni in a capacity different from that of their everyday ventures. Together, University Advancement and the Civic Engagement and Career Development Center, are working towards introducing companies who currently have a recruiting or service relationship to the idea of including financial commitments as part of their partnership, and vice versa.Call to Action
