JMC Ambassadors

The JMC Ambassador Program is a leadership and service program within the Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship.

JMC Ambassadors represent the college on and off campus by leading tours of facilities, assisting with events such as Mentor Nights and recruitment initiatives, and connecting with prospective students and their families. Ambassadors serve as a bridge between students, faculty, and the community while developing their professional skills in communication, networking, and leadership.
