We're so happy that you're here at UAlbany! Take a look at the different tabs at the top of the page, or scroll down below. While not an exhaustive list by any means, you'll be able to find many national and local Asian Pacific Islander organizations sorted by industry. This may provide you with ideas for a potential major, ways to get involved, or with internship opportunities.

As a student, there's a lot to juggle and to think about! However, it’s of equal importance to balance both academics and experiential learning (getting involved on-campus, working, or doing an internship, etc.) as that can provide enriching opportunities for your future career path.

If you’d like to speak with a Career Advisor on your potential next steps, make an appointment with our Office of Career & Professional Development anytime!
