JSU Student Outcomes
Doctors. Inventors. Educators. NBA sports analysts. Even comedy writers for the Emmys. These are just some of the successful professions Tiger alumni go on to enjoy after graduating from JSU (not to mention the four NFL Hall of Famers).
How do we do it? By helping students access educational and professional opportunities, like internships, fellowships and interdisciplinary learning.
