Tu Hogar Lejos De Casa. Si inviertes en la Universidad Duquesne, gozarás de los resultados
toda tu vida.
Duquesne checked off all the boxes for me. It’s in a big city but with a small
campus, so you get to know your professors and classmates. I feel very prepared to
enter medical school knowing that I’m part of an educational and social network at
Duquesne that will continue to support me throughout my life.
Duquesne offers a perfect blend between education, location and opportunities
for my career goals. As a Pittsburgh native, I wanted to attend a school close enough
to home where I could continue to grow my network, and that was also small enough
for me to build relationships with my professors.
Duquesne had the best of both worlds for me. It was a less expensive and smaller
school in a much more diverse and exciting environment in comparison to my other choices.
The whole reason I’m at Duquesne is because of the Gussin Spiritan Division.
They gave me the opportunity to come here on a full ride. I wouldn’t be where I am
today without the Gussins. I’m very thankful for them.
They [Duquesne faculty] know you as a person so having those relationships is
so important. I know it would have been different if I had gone to school somewhere
else.
The Honors Bridges EQ Course 'What Good is Democracy?’ was so interesting because
we explored how democracy has evolved over time. Being able to read texts critically
and form your own opinions is such an important skill, and I am so lucky to have done
this during my first semester at Duquesne.
When I decided on music therapy, I found that Duquesne was one of the few schools
that offered it. I fell in love with the program.
The University really prepares students to excel in their careers and make meaningful
contributions to society.
My favorite class at Duquesne so far was the Honors Bridges EQ course ‘Why Do
Feelings Matter?’ Dr. St. Hilaire is an excellent professor who structures the class
to help students learn to identify what emotions look like in the world and within
themselves.
The supply chain management knowledge I gained from the Palumbo- Donahue School
of Business, as well as the various skills development sessions offered by Duquesne’s
Center for Career Development, helped me become a professional ready to take on any
business challenge. The Supply Chain Associate position at Nestlé is the perfect role
where I can apply all I learned at Duquesne and really make an impact.
The Division of Marketing and Communications at Duquesne University set me up
for success in more ways than I can count. Duquesne equipped me with the skills and
resources to confidently enter the workforce and seek opportunities that enrich my
professional life. My time at Duquesne and in Pittsburgh has shaped me into the person
I am today.
