Message from the Director of Career Development Services

There are three main reasons for the Trachtenberg School's consistent success at preparing graduate students to become thoughtful, skilled, and ethical public servants:

Our faculty, dedicated to public service education, actively contribute to public life as researchers and consultants to governments, NGOs, and companies around the world.
The school's interdisciplinary curricula prepare Trachtenberg School students to be creative problem-solvers, responsible team members, and effective leaders.
The countless professional development opportunities near the Trachtenberg School enable our students to apply theory learned in the classroom to internships, jobs, and pro bono consulting projects at organizations that interest them the most.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the Trachtenberg School. Students, alumni, and employers, I look forward to working with you.

Denise Riebman
Director of Career Development Services
