Engage with Purpose
Regardless of where our community members are in their personal and professional journeys — from having just walked across the stage at commencement to finishing storied careers and building their legacies — we are passionate about providing people with the tools and opportunities to increase their impact.
Mentor a Future Business Leader
Mike Fries, CEO and Vice Chairman of Liberty Global, speaks with a business student after his Business Day presentation at CSU.
Greatness is rarely achieved without the helping hands of those around us who share our goals and hold a passion for seeing others succeed.
From pairing seasoned business professionals with students to peer and near-peer mentoring that connects upperclassmen, underclassmen, and high school students from across rural and diverse communities in Colorado, our mentoring programs bring together all the members of our College.
Although the types of mentors and mentees vary, the goal is always the same: create meaningful and supportive relationships that change people's lives.
Professional Mentoring
The Professional Mentoring Program starts at the beginning of each academic year. All participants commit to meeting at least twice per semester, either in person or virtually, for one academic year.
Every year, the College facilitates scores of professional mentoring connections. This year, will you lend your insights and experience to help to increase that impact?

Support an Impact MBA Summer Fellowship
The Impact MBA, Corporate Sustainability track prepares students to make sustainability a part of the purpose and profitability of a business. As part of the program, students are paired with a business partner to identify, analyze and address a sustainability issue. Businesses from across Colorado can support these students by hosting a summer fellowship.
