Careers in International Studies
Where are they now?
A look at where some of our alumni work today!
International Studies graduates enter a broad range of international and domestic careers, often excelling in their fields – an accomplishment recognized by the fact that in the last seven years, seven of our graduates have been awarded the coveted Outstanding Young Alumni Award, which recognizes recent graduates who show considerable professional and civic accomplishments. Several of these alumni now serve in a variety of government agencies, including the Foreign Service, as well as multinational corporations and non-governmental agencies, and have worked in over 40 countries.
This section will give you an idea of some of the many companies, governmental agencies, and other firms that count on the talent of our graduates, as well as some of the positions held by these graduates.
