What is Co-Curricular IPE?

Co-curricular activities are not credit-bearing educational experiences, but enhance the experience of students as they progress through their professional training. The Center is involved in such activities in a variety of ways. For example, in Leadership Legacy, the Center supports the faculty and manages the logistics of this semester long experience. 

IP Student Groups offer students at UK the chance to learn with , from and about each other. Each IP student group has their own focus and objectives. IP student groups are a great way to learn and stay involved. All IP student groups are registered with UK and the SGA BBNvolved page. Visit that page to get your name on a roster.
