When a student-athlete enrolls at Mizzou, he or she can expect to have one of the top student-athlete experiences in the nation. Much of that is due to the time and effort put into each individual student-athlete by Mizzou's academic staff – MizzouMade.

MizzouMade has high expectations of the student-athletes and expects each of them to embody and uphold all of Mizzou Athletics' core values: social responsibility, academic integrity, and competitive excellence. The program relies on a personal enhancement model that is the foundation of success for every Mizzou student-athlete, one that includes a focus on personal identity and values, well-being, and transition and reflection.

That process includes the key cornerstone of career development to ensure that each student-athlete who comes through Mizzou leaves as a prepared professional, with their own identity and skills to become an ambassador for the University of Missouri.

Last week, associate athletic director for student-athlete development Kim Bishop set up a satellite job fair in St. Louis, Mo., giving Mizzou student-athletes the chance to meet with professionals from the St. Louis Cardinals, Mercy Hospitals and the Target Corporation.  Mizzou Network was there to document the experience. Check out the video below for a recap of the day's action and to see one of the numerous ways that the MizzouMade program shapes the lives of Mizzou's student-athletes.
