About the Program
The 2025 Bond Family Foundation Student Scholars, funded by a gift from the Bond Family Foundation, connects University of Rochester students in the School of Arts & Sciences and the Hajim School of Engineering to internship opportunities with for-profit organizations in the Rochester region.
This program allows students to gain valuable skills and experiences and create a Rochester-based network for post-graduation success. Equally valuable, the program will support the regions’ efforts to showcase to students the value of the Rochester community for life after college. All while allowing organizations to build and/or enhance talent pipelines and demonstrate an actionable commitment to diversity, inclusion, and access in recruiting.
