Experience Stern: Stern & the City

Patagonia CEO Ryan Gellert and Chief Impact and Communications Officer Corley Kenna spoke with Professor T. Alexander Puutio and his Stern Undergraduate College Organizational Communication and its Social Context class

For NYU Stern students, New York City equals access. This means members of the C-suite regularly guest speak in class. And the chance to meet one-on-one with alumni executives who serve as career role models. Or the opportunity to get immersed in relevant real-world projects with actual companies. Here are a few fast facts and snapshots from the past year:

Experiential Learning Projects
  • 6x growth over the last 10 years yielded a 500% increase in student participation
  • 90+ clients and projects per year (five-year average) across 16 industries
  • Nearly 50 alumni sponsor projects annually
Executive-in-Residence Program
  • 1,000 student participants this academic year
  • 27 alumni and non-Stern affiliates serve year-long appointments
  • 750+ program-affiliated events held
