It's no wonder that La Roche has been championed as a Career Development College of Distinction. Our students learn who they are, where they want to go and how to achieve their goals. 

As a result of our academic excellence and emphasis on high-impact practices, 90 percent of La Roche graduates find employment, go on to graduate school, perform military service or participate in volunteer initiatives such as AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps within one year of graduating.

The Office of Career Development empowers students to achieve professional success. We offer a variety of resources and events throughout the academic year, including:

  • Career-readiness programming
  • Employer networking events
  • Internship/employment application support 

We also connect employers with emerging talent and offer continued career services to La Roche alumni.
