Build the life you want to live

We're in your corner, from the classroom to your career. Starting from when you step onto campus and through those pivotal first professional steps, we provide knowledge, networks, and 1:1 career coaching that guarantees results.

From your first year on campus, you’ll combine your academic knowledge, values, and habits with the career-oriented skills, networks, and experiences you need to be the architect of your own life. The Knowlton Center offers you a lifetime of career support.

An Entire Career Ecosystem

Figuring out what you want to do after graduation is not simple. It’s a complex process that evolves organically over time, and the Knowlton Center will coach you along the way.

We help you answer three guiding questions:

  1. What kind of life do I want to lead?
  2. How do careers and professions fit into those lives?
  3. How do I use my time in college to develop the skills, values, habits, experiences and networks to get started?

Our innovative approach synthesizes your entire experience, bringing together people, opportunities, tools and resources to support your career journey, from exploration to launch. And you’ll have access to 1:1 career coaching throughout the process.

Some Aces up Our Sleeve

Many generous alumni have provided financial resources that give Knowlton Center the means to provide a robust stipend program. The goal: to help you offset the cost of participating in unpaid or low-paying internships.

Our technology gives you a competitive edge.

You have free access to tools like LinkedIn Learning and VMock, which uses artificial intelligence, data science and natural language processing to provide instant, personalized feedback on your résumé. Our tools help you explore career paths, identify opportunities, gain knowledge, and professional experiences.

16 career coaches give you personal attention

You build deep relationships with our professional staff (who have a combined three centuries of experience!). They provide individualized coaching, support and mentorship that you need to launch successfully.

And Here’s Proof This Works

We’re confident you will be successful. Here’s why: we have proof that our program has worked for thousands of Denison students before you. That’s The Denison Advantage.

We’re proud that just five years after graduation, 99% of Denison alumni are employed or in grad school — and are on their way to achieving their professional goals. They say Denison contributed to their success.
