Grad Cap

Grad students are getting specialized care at the Career Center.

Though graduate students are typically at different points in their careers than their undergraduate counterparts, they are often presented with the same slate of career services and opportunities. Not so at Santa Clara.

The Career Center’s Myriam Bartz has been named assistant director of career development for alumni and graduate students, except for those in the business and law schools.
