JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s James Mahoney speaks to attendees at September's public launch of the college-to-career program for autistic students at UD.
Five UD students next year will receive communication, independent-living and career development coaching as the first cohort of Spectrum Scholars, a JPMorgan Chase-UD collaboration administered by CDS. The program, which is open to computer science and engineering majors, will also seek to train college faculty and area businesses in creating environments that embrace neurodiversity.
