16 May · Episode 155 Tailoring StudentServices to Create Career-Ready Graduates 36 Min · By Dr. Drumm McNaughton Hear how Villanova University is creating career-ready graduates with approximately 94% of students being accepted into internships. This culture is also instilled at the faculty level.
Campus leaders need to thoroughly assess, streamline, and reprioritize these efforts to ensure all students are aware of and have access to support services and preparation resources and that the teams doing the work can collaborate efficiently and effectively. How is your campus preparing students for graduation and beyond?
In addition to being the one-stop-shop for academic, co-curricular and studentservice information, the app helps connect and engage students.

In stark contrast to prevailing trends in higher education, colleges and universities have or are boosting their enrollment, retention, and graduation rates by improving their students’ sense of belonging, student support services, student-faculty relationships, and career readiness programs.
