Coca-Cola Foundation Invests in the Center for Career Discovery and Professional Success

The Coca-Cola Foundation has awarded Agnes Scott College a $1 million grant to help launch the new Center for Career Discovery and Professional Success.

To be housed in Main Hall and managed by the Office of Internship and Career Development, the center will deliver comprehensive professional support by offering career communities, team-based advising and professional readiness resources all in one place.

The center will expand the impact of Agnes Scott’s award-winning SUMMIT curricular and cocurricular experience by delivering student-focused career support programming and access to professional opportunities for all Scotties as they progress from undergraduate education through post-baccalaureate study and/or starting their careers.

“More intentional career discovery and exploration will allow all students, especially those from first-generation backgrounds, to more confidently take advantage of the full breadth of opportunity afforded by a liberal arts education,” says President Leocadia I. Zak.

“The center will help students build professional and social capital to drive lifelong career fulfillment.”
