Find career success at SIUE

An SIUE education will prepare you for success.

Regional and national companies, such as MasterCard, Bayer and IBM have hired SIUE international alumni as part of the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program. In fact, nearly 90% of international students who graduate from SIUE and apply for the OPT program secure a temporary employment position with a company in the U.S.

Many graduates also go on to doctoral studies at prestigious universities, including Vanderbilt, University of Southern California, Georgia Tech and Carnegie Mellon University.

Our reputation as a highly rated, affordable college is why the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education recently upgraded SIUE to the newly created doctoral/professional universities category. SIUE ranks third in research expenditures in this category, according to the National Science Foundation. 

I hope SIUE is your top choice as you plan for your future. Start your application today! Our graduate and international admissions staff is here to answer your questions, and we hope to welcome you to campus soon.

Sincerely,
James Monahan, EdD
Director of Graduate and International Admissions
