Engage
Big ideas don’t grow in isolation.
Engage is where students step into Tsai CITY—through hands-on experiences, signature programs, paid opportunities, and moments that turn curiosity into action. Whether you’re exploring, building, or leading, this is where participation starts.
Not Sure Where to Start?
No stress—that’s normal. Start with an event, explore a program, or jump into a role. Engagement isn’t linear, and there’s no “right” entry point.
You belong here. We’ll help you find your lane.
Our programs meet you where you are—from early exploration to venture development. Whether you’re testing an idea, joining a cohort, or deepening a practice, there’s a pathway built for progress.
Whether you’re exploring an early idea, advancing a project or venture, or building community across Yale, our funding opportunities can help you take your next step.
From workshops and speaker series to pitch nights and community convenings, Tsai CITY events are designed to spark ideas, build skills, and connect you with people who care about making things happen.
Connect with experienced founders, operators, creatives, and professionals who offer guidance, perspective, and real-world insight.
