As Ursinus continues to advance APEX and applied liberal arts education, we wish to extend those principles beyond graduation while supporting the College’s evolving operating model. This Post-Baccalaureate APEX Fellows Program creates practical, project-based early career professional experience for recent graduates while expanding the College’s capacity to execute strategic initiatives. Each Fellow will be assigned a primary area of focus that provides entry-level, real-world experience within a professional functional area, complemented by secondary work and learning experiences that broaden their understanding of higher education, institutional operations, and cross-functional collaboration.
The Alumni Engagement Fellow will develop processes and document workflows that will support the growth and sophistication of the College’s Alumni Referral, Alumni Legacy, and U-Connect programs.
What You’ll Gain:
- Applied: Hands-on experience designing and documenting operational workflows that directly support Alumni Referral, Legacy, and U-Connect programs.
- Professional: Exposure to relationship management, alumni outreach strategy, and advancement operations within a higher education setting.
- Experiential: A portfolio-ready body of work — including process maps, program documentation, and engagement data — that demonstrates your capacity to build systems from the ground up.
This fellowship will position you for careers in alumni relations, nonprofit development, higher education administration, and program management.
