“Fast 15” Career Jump-Start Program

Could 15 hours help set a course for your future career plans? Or help guide you to explore fields you may not have considered? The “Fast 15” career jump-start program offers special 1-credit courses each semester, designed to be completed over 1 weekend, and continues the school’s commitment to developing students as leaders for the types of careers that have not yet been invented. This program combines student learning, faculty leadership, and professional networking to explore the future of work from multi- and inter-disciplinary perspectives, and the courses are geared to the pre-internship phase, which is a wonderful time to be curious about a world of possibilities and to be smart about knowing what you don’t know.

Undergraduate Certificate in Gender-Based Violence

Undergraduate students at Tulane can earn a certificate in Gender-Based Violence through the School of Liberal Arts. Many students already dedicate time to working on the issue outside of class through service as members of Sexual Aggression Peer Hotline and Education (SAPHE) or as Peer Health Educators (TUPHEs), as members of the All In student coalition, or as interns in the Title IX office, or at The Well. This certificate offers a curricular complement to that work. Those in human resources, law, counseling, and medical professions (nurses, doctors, physical therapists, dentists) all engage with victims/survivors of gender-based violence and could benefit from this certificate program.
