We believe that SID and Heller should prepare you for your dream job in development. As a Heller student, you will work closely with the Career Development Center to define your professional goals and create strategies to achieve them. Beginning with the online Career Academy the summer before orientation, SID students regularly meet with career advisors, learn from professional development workshops and attend employer events throughout their time at Heller.
SID students gain the knowledge, skills and tools at Heller to get great jobs where they bring innovative ideas and creative practice to the development sector. Furthermore, they learn about human rights, gender equity, inclusive societies and environmental sustainability—the values that we believe should guide development work, whether it's in a large multilateral organization or a small local nonprofit organization. Heller's career development team helps students decide how and where they can work to make the world a better place, as a researcher, policy analyst, practitioner or advocate in countries around the world.
