ICS Scholars are undergraduates at Cornell who are preparing for a fast start in the compensation field. ICS is here to show the way! We provide links with leading partners for mentorships, internships, and community. Eligible members can receive scholarships. Scholars commit to a focus on preparing for their first job in compensation by taking a specified collection of classes that will support their success, including statistics, accounting, introduction to finance, introductory compensation and executive compensation. Together with on-the-job experience, ICS Scholars graduate ready to take off!
