After Grinnell
Our majors have pursued graduate work and careers in a wide variety of fields. The Department recommends that students in their sophomore and junior years contact the Career Development Office to plan for summer internships or job previews. These provide valuable experience in investigating choices after graduation. Majors also have an opportunity to contact alumni directly. Additionally, several former majors have volunteered to speak about their career paths with current majors.
