Successful Careers

Better Together

Saint Vincent faculty, students and alumni remind us daily that true humility is not about playing small, but rather about helping others achieve big things.

When you invest in the common good, you become a catalyst for change—no matter what career path you choose.

Successful Careers

We serve

In order to become global citizens, Saint Vincent College students participate in many service opportunities. Hunger Action Month, Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, and the Annual Westmoreland Earth Day event are just some of the ways our students are able to give back to the community.

We create

Saint Vincent College offers a Literary Translation Minor that combines creative writing, languages, international literature, and critical theory. Our Visiting Writers Series brings celebrated literary translators to campus and our own Eulalia Books, an indie publisher of poetry in translation, offers work-study and internship opportunities to students interested in pursuing careers in publishing and related fields.

We thrive

Graduates of Saint Vincent College are highly sought after by companies like Qualtrics, a software maker ranked #6 on the Forbes Cloud 100 List. In fact, 98% of recent graduates are either employed or furthering their education within the first year of graduation.

We launch

Before man could land on the moon, someone needed to manage the logistics of delivering highly volatile liquid hydrogen (LH2) to NASA test facilities and launch sites. That job gave Jim Suda, C’60, a BS in management graduate, a front-row seat to the success of the Apollo space program.

We discover

Floyd Nichols, Biology C’19, got hooked on biogeochemistry — the study of how Earth’s simplest life forms regulate climate and environment — as a summer research intern at the University of Notre Dame. Now he pursues a Ph.D. in earth and planetary science at Northwestern University.

We triumph

Suzie Cool, C’15, made her mark on sports broadcasting history in 2019 when she and colleague Melanie Newman became professional baseball’s first all-female broadcasting team, announcing a Carolina League game between the Salem Red Sox and Potomac Nationals.
