4Ward Career Pathways Program

The 4WARD Career Pathways Program (formerly known as the Road to Industry Program- RTIP) is designed to support undergraduate students who may not have well-established career networks. The program helps them clarify career goals, build professional connections, and develop the skills needed to become internship and professional experience-ready.
Through tailored career advising, 1:1 mentoring with Rutgers alumni, networking opportunities, and access to recruiting resources, students gain the confidence and preparation they need for post-graduation success.
Alumni mentors play a key role in this journey. By meeting with your assigned student about 2 hours per month (October – April) – virtually, in-person, or a mix of both – you’ll provide guidance, share your career experiences, and help open doors to the world of work.
