The Career Mentor program matches students from any discipline on campus to a professional mentor in the Kansas City area to do a job shadowing experience of 10 hours minimum. This program allows students to gain a better understanding of a career field and it connects professionals to the college through a professional relationship with a Jewell student.
The Journey Grant is a $2,000 minimum grant that allows Jewell students to study abroad, attend a conference, or to start a business with these funds, or anything to aid the experiential learning process. To use the Journey Grant, a student must apply for it to use during their Junior or Senior year. The school offers pre-planned trips that include learning about business on a ranch, learning about third world communities and economies in Honduras, the British Teacher Education Program, among others.
Students at William Jewell College have the opportunity to apply for funding for a start-up or business venture through the Kauffman Grant. The students can apply through the Director of Creativity and Innovation to have access to these funds that allow students to gain real world experiences with real money to start up.
