Get INVOLVED WITH THE MCDERMOND CENTER FOR MANAGEMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP
The Office of Alumni Engagement is proud to partner with the McDermond Center for Management and Entrepreneurship in helping students and alumni develop meaningful connections and networks, anchored in their DePauw experience.
Our alumni provide a variety of opportunities for students to gain experiences and insights outside of the classroom, helping them incorporate their education and skills into real-world experience.
