Daily Focus: MDP as Part of the Greater University Community
Yesterday, you met some of the most active members of the MDP community, those who comprise the Program's Governance Body, or Program Committee. Today you will learn more about some of the different ways that the MDP Program connects to the broader University. This will happen through sharing of the experiences of MDP students and alumni, as well as through our guests from some of the various University programs that most attract MDP students.
