Snelsire, Sawyer, & Robinson Clemson Career Workshop

The Snelsire, Sawyer, & Robinson Clemson Career Workshop is an outreach program designed to support the readiness of high-achieving students to enter college. This is a two-year program in which students start the summer going into their junior year of high school and are tracked through graduation. The Clemson Career Workshop enables rising high school juniors and seniors an opportunity to get an inside look into Clemson University while learning tips and tools needed to prepare for college and beyond. Furthermore, the Clemson Career Workshop provides students with exposure to science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), arts and humanities, and social and behavioral sciences.
