About Labor and Employment Studies

Graduates of the Labor and Employment Studies Program go on work in a wide range of purpose-driven jobs across the public and private sector, and many of them held internships while completing their studies, which opened doors to meaningful career opportunities after graduation. Read about the varied career paths some of our graduates have chosen: Career Paths After Internships.

During their studies and after graduation, students pursue careers in a variety of organizations. These include Worker Centers, which advocate for some of the most vulnerable workers in industries where health and safety violations, wage theft, and other labor issues are common. Students also work with Labor Organizations and Local Unions, as well as Local, State, and Federal Government Labor Agencies.
