– Cory Colijn

Taking Full Advantage of the Penn Experience Cory Colijn came to Penn in 2007 as a guest student, and soon transferred here to finish her bachelor’s degree in the Earth and Environmental Science Department. During her time as an undergraduate she was named the EES Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Assistant and graduated magna cum laude in 2011. Cory later joined Penn as a staff member when she was hired as the Graduate Student Coordinator for the Professional Master’s Programs in Earth & Environmental Science. She supports many aspects of these programs, but her favorite part of her job is daily interaction with current students. “Our students really are the best and brightest,” she says. “They are a constant source of inspiration and energy.” Cory is now pursuing a Master of Science in Applied Geosciences at the College of Liberal and Professional Studies, with an individualized concentration and a career focus on land management.
