MEET TOP INDUSTRY LEADERS

Excursions

What are Excursions?

Learn from a top industry leader and gain insights into real work leadership challenges through our Excursions program. In this unique opportunity, a small group of students goes "Beyond the Hedges" to meet with a successful Houston leader in their own environment. Here, they will learn from the leader's stories of success, failure, and ethical dilemmas.

Excursions include:

  • A half-day, off-campus experience
  • Group of 7-10 students
  • Meals and transportation provided
  • Meeting with a professional leader and tour of their facilities
  • Student Leadership Assessment Report
