The College of Creative Studies (CCS) is known for its signature undergraduate experience: an experiential learning model embedded within a tier one research university. In support of this foundational approach, The Create Fund enables CCS students who work closely with faculty to undertake research, creative works, and entrepreneurial-focused projects during the summer. Gifts to the Fund provide fellowships to these students, allowing them to gain valuable insight and contribute to their disciplines as junior colleagues during their undergraduate careers—a core CCS learning experience.
