The Environmental Studies Major helps foster skills in leadership, multidisciplinary collaboration, critical thinking, and a focus on social justice. Current students and recent graduates can put their education to work in many ways, and there are many Vassar alumnae/i working on Environmental issues. There are several ways to connect with them:

1. Join VassarNet, the College’s private LinkedIn group dedicated to building professional networks between and among alums and current Vassar students. In this group, you can:
   1. Send messages to contacts of interest, and set up informational interviews.
   2. Search for (or post) job and internship opportunities for the Vassar community.
   3. Ask career-related questions and get answers from the community.
2. Check out the profiles of the nearly 30,000 alums on Vassar’s “University Page” on LinkedIn, where you can search for alums by employer, location, industry, and more.
3. Locate additional alums who majored in Environmental Studies and check out the Alum Directory. This directory contains listings for all alums, including people who may be willing to share career advice.
4. There are resources available to both students and alums through the Vassar Center for Career Education to help with job searches.

We hope that Vassar students and graduates will continue to utilize these various Vassar community forums to bring people from different fields together.
