Walsh University graduates enter the workforce with the skills, knowledge, abilities, and heart for service that lead to a lifetime of success. Our graduates have gone onto become CEOs, humanitarians, leaders of Fortune 100 companies, educators, clergy, leaders in healthcare, entrepreneurs, and so much more. Most graduates are employed in their chosen field or are in graduate school within 6 months of graduating. And if they aren’t, we’ll work with you to make it happen. As a graduate you’ll enter your chosen field with:

  • A deep understanding of a variety of career paths through self-exploration
  • Multiple smart skills like critical thinking and problem-solving gained through your academic and co-curricular experiences
  • At least one internship, service learning, and experiential learning opportunity under your belt
  • Knowledge of methods for navigating and identifying career opportunities and expanding your network
