Ambassadors
Our Graduate Program Ambassadors are dedicated alumni volunteers who go above and beyond to spread the word about the IEM program and recruit new students. They're passionate about sharing their success stories, connecting prospective students, current students, and alumni, and offering real-world insights. These ambassadors are committed to helping others experience the same growth and career transformation they did.
