Sophomores, juniors encouraged to apply for Compass Summer pilot program

Salve Regina is seeking sophomore and junior applicants for the Compass Summer pilot program, which will be held during the upcoming summer of 2023.

The Compass Summer pilot program is an exciting new initiative that is part of the overall Salve Signature Experience — officially dubbed the Salve Compass program — that will be an important part of the University’s overall educational experience moving forward.

Part of Salve the Compass program, the Compass Summer is a project-based, immersive and hands-on experience where students will take a lead role in their learning. Led by Salve Regina’s faculty, these Compass Summer projects have been designed for participants to work in a collaborative team setting to tackle a critical concern facing the world.

Participation in a Compass Summer program will provide Salve Regina students with opportunities and skillsets that will foster tangible experience that will foster career readiness after graduation.

All selected participants will be expected to attend one workshop in April, and the date for these will be forthcoming. In addition, participants will be asked to to complete pre- and post-program assessments.

There are no additional costs associated with participating in a Compass Summer pilot for summer 2023. All housing, meals, and supplies will be provided.
