The Problem for UCSD

UCSD alumni and students both face substantial obstacles to success within the industry.

Students face uphill battles in recruiting
- No on-campus recruiting
- Students lack awareness of the industry
- Obstacles are perpetuated by the lack of alumni network

Alumni face uphill battles in careers
- Alumni network is small and diffuse relative to other university alumni networks
- Lack of network and reputation hurts candidacy for new jobs
- Obstacles are perpetuated by the lack of UCSD students entering the industry

The result: A vicious feedback loop puts alumni and students from UCSD at a significant disadvantage relative to those from other universities.
