Understanding that faculty are central to the process of positioning students for success in landing internships and full-time jobs aligned with their career interests, HunterWorks is committed to supporting academic departments with the resources they need to achieve strong student employment outcomes.
HunterWorks supports over a dozen paid Internship Coordinators as staff embedded within academic departments and designated by their department chair.
HunterWorks supports over a dozen Faculty Career Specialists each year to provide career coaching to students and leverage occupational-specific hiring data to inform the Department’s curriculum.
HunterWorks issues grants each year to faculty who either propose to create new courses or to update their existing courses
to better prepare students for landing internships and jobs in the field.
HunterWorks supports Departments with active industry professionals from the NYC ecosystem to teach in the classroom as adjuncts — transferring their skillsets and applied knowledge directly to students — and to collaborate with faculty.
