Into the Capital City opened my eyes to the many incredible workplaces and initiatives in Columbus. As a Philosophy and Individualized Studies major, I hadn’t realized how many options I have after graduation. This experience showed me that my major has equipped me with valuable, transferable skills that extend beyond any single career path.

Philosophy and Individualized Studies
Seeing Cincinnati from a business and tourist perspective, and even seeing it by boat, was a terrific experience. I heard about Miami alumni’s different career paths, which was invaluable because I was exploring my options in the Farmer School of Business at the time. I also enjoyed meeting employers because it gave me experience networking in a real-world setting.
