The College of William & Mary
William & Mary's Global Scholars Program is a strong example of how institutions are actively working on creating new ways of applied learning experiences for their students. This article looks at how W&M brought together internships, international study, and structured mentorship into one experience. This approach means students do not have to choose between different applied learning options. W&M shares practical strategies for making work-integrated learning available to more students, these include layered mentorship, financial aid to help all students participate, and collaboration across departments. Together, these steps provide a model that other institutions can use to make applied learning a regular and fair part of every student’s education.
