Pace Path

The Seidenberg Pace Path

Students of the Seidenberg School engage in a four-year/120 credit journey of academic development and professional training that produces the "thinking professionals" for which Pace University is justly renowned. Computer science and information technology are "problem solving" disciplines that combine the essence of STEM areas of study with analytical and creative skills that are an excellent foundation for careers in any field or or graduate school.

Personal and Professional Development

• Coaching
• On-campus work
• Undergraduate research
• Internships
• International experience
• Community service
• Mentoring

Seidenberg students have a unique opportunity to follow an enriching path as they navigate their way through their academic careers at Pace University.

The following is an example of how we accomplish this:

A freshman student arrives at Seidenberg with a full roster of classes. She joins one of our clubs, such as Pace Computing Society (PCS) and works part time as a student aide, becoming part of our thriving Seidenberg community. During the summer break, she works as a mentor at our high school summer camps, gaining valuable leadership and mentoring experience.

In sophomore year, again alongside a busy schedule of classes, our student is promoted to an undergraduate research assistant to a faculty member. In the spring semester, she uses her collected experience to secure an internship with IBM, which stretches into the summer. This builds her professional network and provides impressive work experience.

Returning for her junior year, our student is promoted again to work in a higher capacity with a faculty member. She gains the opportunity to work on a Global Design Factory Network international exchange program in Finland, which broadens her knowledge of the international tech industry and shapes an amazing college memory she will always cherish.

Finally, now in senior year, our student interns for 20 hours per week at a cool tech startup. She is mentoring female undergraduate students and has plenty to discuss at job interviews. She will leave Pace with a wealth of knowledge and experience, prepared for a professional career in the field of her choice, and armed with a packed resume and evidence to prove her skills.
