Williams students, empowered by a liberal arts education, are uniquely poised for a rewarding career in the technology industry. Employers are also convinced that new hires from broader educational backgrounds are incredibly valuable. Check out these resources that can help you secure a great position in Tech:

- Pathways to Science also has a great directory of available research internships.
- CareerKarma keeps a great list of technical boot camps to build up industry-specific skills (many students without a Computer Science degree can still find tech jobs through these certificates!)
