Roberts Fellowship Program
    |
The Roberts Fellowship Program provides a very select group of outstanding SVSU students with weekly, three-hour seminars on leadership and an international study and travel experience in Asia, a total of 6 credit hours, all at no cost to them (application information).
The Roberts Fellowship Program is a wonderful opportunity for Saginaw Valley students from a wide range of disciplines to develop their potential as future leaders in their fields, while providing them a unique opportunity for study and travel abroad.
Last May, as in all but one of the first eight years of the Roberts Fellowship Program, the Fellows traveled to China, Taiwan and Japan for an intensive immersion in Asian culture. They found their experiences to be life changing and inspiring as they have entered into graduate school and a broad range of careers.
In May 2008, the current class of Roberts Fellows expects to return to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, conditions permitting. Expenses for these travel experiences, as well as the academic courses, will be met by the Saginaw Valley State Universty Foundation.
