Read on to hear about what our first Social Entrepreneurship and Non-profits graduate has been doing since she graduated.
Aimy Steadman
Advertising, Graduated Summer 2008
Aimy interned with ACTLab and created a web-based peer-to-peer learning site. She also developed marketing plans and fundraising programs for the non-profit organization, Our Forgotten Heroes. The projects she completed for the Social Entrepreneurship and Non-profits BDP helped her learn more about web development and marketing strategy. After graduation she continued to work in advertising for an interactive marketing company in Austin.
“Through the classes I’ve taken for my BDP, I’ve come to understand that sociology and health care intersect on a multitude of levels. My BDP has helped me see the connection, and now I’m pursuing internships and future academic programs in medical sociology.”
