Key Experiences
At Midland University, students are getting more than just an education – they are getting an experience —the experience of getting involved, making meaningful connections, and building a pathway toward their future.
Along their academic journey, students will take part in what we call “Key Experiences.” These experiences will spark learning outside of the classroom and beyond the textbook. They will get students learning first-hand about a profession, seeing the process from an up-close perspective, and thinking outside the box.
Beyond the Classroom
The pursuit of academic excellence goes beyond traditional classroom boundaries as Midland strives to prepare students for the complexities of the 21st century by integrating Key Experiences into every single academic program. The integration of Key Experiences with the DRIVE framework equips students with practical skills and a level of hands-on experience that sets them apart in an ever-evolving job market.

Key Experiences Stories
Each month as part of this series, we will share stories of our students and these unique experiences that are taking place in the classroom, community, or even abroad. These experiences will not only give them a different perspective on college life, but shape them for an exciting future. These stories are just a few examples of the many opportunities our students are afforded as they expand their educational horizons.
