Overview

The STaRS Program’s mission is to connect students with an interest in technology to hiring departments that need technology support. Hiring departments may contract with the STaRS Program; fees are based on the levels of service provided. By contracting with STaRS, University departments mentor talented students; students, in turn, get valuable work experiences and increase the technical proficiencies on campus. Our services are based on four categories, which you can explore to the right.

The STaRS Program is a self-sustaining, non-profit program based completely on income obtained from our contracts with hiring departments.
