The Magnuson First Year Fellows program immerses first-year students in entrepreneurial thinking and leadership within a collaborative, creative, and inspiring environment.
Students gain access to programming with inspiring guests—startup founders (students, alumni, faculty), entrepreneurial leaders, and innovators. They participate in workshops on business improv, human-centered design, and more. MFYF students also receive mentorship from upper-level students on the Magnuson Student Leadership Board and insights from experienced Entrepreneurial Thinking & Leadership Fellows.
Application for the Magnuson First Year Fellows are available around week 4 of the Dartmouth fall term. MFYF meet weekly in the Dartmouth winter and spring terms.
