Become a Changemaker at SIUE
SIUE is a supportive, student-focused community. We want to help you discover what matters most to you and help you work toward your goals from the very beginning.
Through the Changemakers Initiative, general education becomes more than a set of required courses; It’s the starting point for identifying your strengths and trying new ideas. Along the way, you’ll build skills, connect concepts across subjects, and begin linking your academic experiences to real-world career possibilities.
Discover your general education options, featuring the unique Changemakers Pathways. Learn how the program works, explore your choices, and hear from students who are already using their education to create real-world change.
Every experience at SIUE, from the classroom to campus life, is an opportunity to connect what you care about with where you want to go. By graduation, we hope you leave with a strong sense of what you’ve accomplished and the confidence and skills to own and shape your tomorrow!
If you have questions, please email changemakers@siue.edu.
