Campus partners and employers work with us to provide opportunities and resources to support students and recent alumni in their career endeavors.
Our Mission & Vision
- Our Mission: Stanford Career Education works to ensure equitable access to resources, connections, opportunities, and education that strengthen the self-discovery of Stanford students and alumni in their career pursuits.
- Our Vision: Prepare Stanford students of all identities to explore and pursue careers with meaning, purpose, and impact.
"As a first-generation student, I relied on a diverse support network of Stanford community members. The coaches at Stanford Career Education helped with reviewing my resume and editing endless cover letters as I applied to numerous fellowships, and showed genuine care for my self-improvement as I navigated what 'work' meant to me as a student and an alum."
— Michelle Ly '21
