Program Details<\/h3>\n

The Tyree Innovation Fellowship is a competitive, two-year program designed for students beginning their Trinity experience. Fellows join the program in their first year and build skills through a structured sequence of coursework, training, field trips, and hands-on activities.<\/p>\n

The Fellowship includes two parts: a first-year experience focused on the Foundations of Innovation & Invention<\/em>, followed by a second-year experience centered on Entrepreneurial & Innovation Leadership<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The first-year experience emphasizes creativity, invention, critical thinking, and problem-solving, guiding students through a concept-to-solution journey.
The second-year experience builds leadership, teamwork, empathy, analysis, communication, and personal growth skills, helping students take solutions into real-world application.<\/p>\n
