Unveiling HunterWorks!

HunterWorks! is not just a program; it represents a college-wide initiative recognizing the necessity for an ecosystem of partnerships. HunterWorks! signifies the acknowledgment of a college-wide demand for a partnership network. To better serve the needs of our students and meet the needs of industry, we’re launching a “Practitioner in Residence” program to place industry professionals in the classroom to teach and work directly with hundreds of students. Faculty and new staff actively assist students in navigating new internships and improved career resources, understanding the significance of a comprehensive approach.

Our mission: To build a network of 100 employer-partners through a significant investment, providing concierge-level service and opening doors at Hunter College. Through strategic planning, we aim to position all Hunter students for career success by connecting them to full-time jobs aligned with their interests, fostering a diverse and flourishing workforce.

Join us on a transformative journey to shape the future of student success!

Fueled by our students’ aspirations for post-graduate success and aligned with Hunter College’s mission of economic mobility, HunterWorks! directly addresses the needs of businesses in NYC. Positioned to enhance talent diversity in collaboration with the New York Jobs CEO Council, we offer an enticing value proposition as a top Hispanic-Serving Institution.

As the primary link connecting businesses with top-tier students, we ensure that Hunter graduates receive the recognition they rightfully deserve for their education, skills, and experiences. Partner with us to forge a path towards a brighter future through meaningful collaboration.
Let’s cultivate success together!
