White-Collar Crime Fellowship

Preparing students to become the next generation of fraud and financial crime professionals through experiential learning, professional mentorship, and community engagement.

The White-Collar Crime Fellowship prepares students to become ethical professionals dedicated to protecting individuals, businesses, and communities from fraud. Through an innovative interdisciplinary approach, students from business, accounting, criminal justice, cybersecurity, finance, and related disciplines gain hands on experience learning how fraud occurs, how it is investigated, how it can be prevented, and how to educate others about fraud awareness.

Fellows learn directly from experienced professionals, including law enforcement officers, Certified Fraud Examiners, forensic accountants, compliance professionals, prosecutors, and business leaders. They participate in organizational visits, analyze fraud cases, hear from guest speakers, and develop and deliver fraud prevention programs that educate community members about today's evolving financial scams and fraud schemes.

Your support provides opportunities for professional mentorship, educational resources, organizational visits, guest speakers, community outreach, and experiential learning that cannot be replicated in a traditional classroom. Together, we are investing in students who will become tomorrow's leaders in fraud prevention, financial crime investigation, and ethical business practices while making a lasting impact on individuals, businesses, and communities.
