What’s in it for me?

Students

JindalConnect gives you instant access to Jindal School alumni in your academic area who already have committed to helping students with résumés, internships or mentoring opportunities. In addition, JindalConnect allows you to connect with other JSOM students who, like you, are interested in growing their professional network, sharing best practices and more. Maybe even getting together for study groups.

Alumni

JindalConnect offers you the opportunity to grow your professional network with people who share your UT Dallas experience. You may reach out to other alums for advice as you advance in your career, connect with other Comets as you relocate to other parts of the nation or globe and offer advice and help to students at the Jindal School of Management who ask to connect with you.

JSOM Friends

JindalConnect welcomes those with ties to the Jindal School of Management because they have attended corporate events, serve now or in the past on one of the school’s many committees and boards, have spoken to classes or reached out to offer help and advice to faculty or students.
