Employment Outcomes an Early Focus<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kalamazoo College students start preparing for employment in their first year on campus when they are introduced to a four-year career exploration plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, with innovative programs such as K-Treks<\/a>, 92 percent of our job-seeking students from the Class of 2019 responding to our surveys reported they had found employment within six months of graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K-Treks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

K-Treks were established in 2014 by K alumnus and TechValidate co-founder Brad O\u2019Neill ’93, who invited four students to San Francisco to learn firsthand about technology careers. Since then, K-Trek programs have grown and expanded to New York City, Chicago and Washington, D.C., providing students with hands-on, outside-the-classroom opportunities. As a result, they learn to network and discover their prospective careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
