Career Success Grants

The ASC Career Success Grant expands meaningful career development opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students in the College of Arts and Sciences.

This grant provides up to $4,000 to fund innovative, faculty and staff-led initiatives that equip students with career readiness skills, applied experiences, and professional networks—whether through course-connected learning, experiential opportunities, or alumni engagement.

In Spring 2026, Career Success awarded $20,000 across five departments to support student-centered career initiatives during the 2026-27 academic year.
