Many Wesleyan graduates enter the workforce with unique qualifications and have combined major and minor programs in ways that separate them from other job-seeking candidates. Anna Deckert '05, for example, graduated from Wesleyan College in 2005 with a double major in International Business and Spanish. She then began pursuing her master’s degree overseas. Read her story!
