Alumni Speaker Series: How Did I Get Here?

The Penn State Department of Statistics, in partnership with the University’s Statistics Club, will host a semester-long webinar series to connect current undergraduate students with alumni who will share their stories, highlighting the diverse career paths that are possible with a degree in statistics.

Through informal discussions with alumni at different stages of their careers — early (3-5 years after graduation), mid (12-15 years after graduation), and senior (25-30 years after graduation) — the series aims to help students envision their own career trajectories by providing a window into the lives of statistics professionals: what they are able to do with their degrees and the skills they acquired during their education at Penn State.
