Robert Occhino Experiential Learning Fund (Award)

The Robert Occhino Experiential Learning Fund (Award) was established by Thomas Occhino, BS '07 and Jessica Occhino to support students in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at the University at Buffalo. This award provides up to $2,000 to students who wish to participate in experiential learning opportunities, including but not limited to unpaid internships. The fund aims to remove financial barriers that might prevent engineering students from pursuing valuable hands-on learning experiences that complement their academic studies. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis throughout the year, allowing students to apply as opportunities arise.
