“I joined ALPFA to primarily develop my professional and behavioral skills. In the college of Engineering, we focus so much on technical skills, class material, and projects that we forget to develop our interview skills. I think that through ALPFA I will be able to stand out as an applicant who is a leader with great communication skills in future interview and application processes” - Nicholas Schneider

Why did you join ALPFA?
“I joined ALPFA as a way to develop my skills in professional development, while being part of a community united by aspiration and a Latino background. The information science major is great for technical skills and academic qualities, but it doesn't really focus on career building. ALPFA is a great way to stay well-rounded and prepared for my future career endeavors” - Dylan Ibrahimi
