The education and experience our graduate students receive enables them to launch extraordinary careers with world-class corporations, academia and beyond — careers that change lives and make a difference in the world. As partners with faculty in our education and research enterprise, graduate students are essential to Penn State’s strength, and they will remain essential as we grow our reputation as a global academic leader. Our vision of a vibrant graduate student community depends on our ability to attract and retain top students and provide them with competitive support. To advance this vision during Penn State’s new campaign, A Greater Penn State for 21st Century Excellence, we are asking our alumni, corporations, and friends to become our partners in creating a lasting impact on our campus and in the world.
