Quotable Ducks

Pathway was the reason I came here. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been affordable for me or my family. But it’s not only about the finances. It also provided advising, which was very helpful. They helped me with my schedule, obtaining financial aid, and applying for study abroad programs. They went above and beyond.

Our donor-supported career development program is a differentiator. Most STEM PhD programs have traditionally focused on training students to become tenured faculty at research-intensive universities. The transition to a full-time career can be difficult and opportunities can be missed without the sorts of formal training and guidance provided by our program.
