Courses
Unique courses to help students grow their interpersonal and career-related life skills.
Helping students embrace growth, flexibility, and collaboration
The Personal Development StudioLab is a space where students develop and practice their life approach, as they hone their craft and connect with themselves and others, to create a better future.
We support the McCormick School of Engineering and Northwestern University by providing students with courses, opportunities, resources, and experiences for their personal growth. Through this environment, we help transform students into whole-brain thinkers who engage the world with both “left-brain” analytical thinking and “right-brain” creative thinking to best understand, frame, and solve complex problems.
