You came. You studied. Now what?
Once you have your degree, you will find that CUPPA has indeed prepared you for real life outside of Peoria Street. In fact, you likely have made a great network based on your internship or capstone project, attending alumni meetings and events, having a mentor, and reaching out to the resources at your disposal while you are a student.
In addition, we also provide opportunities through UIC's Career Services and in-depth opportunities via the CUPPA Alumni Association to help you find the right position for you.

The CUPPA alumni board includes between 15-20 leaders from a wide array of professional backgrounds and experiences. Membership is open to any CUPPA alumnus and voted on every two years at the May meeting. Each term lasts two years, and board members may be reappointed to a maximum of four consecutive terms.
Board members are expected to make an annual monetary contribution to CUPPA that is meaningful to them, attend at least three of the quarterly meetings each year, and engage in other ways such as actively participating in a committee, serving as a mentor to a current student, and attending alumni board events.
