The University of Nebraska Graduate College was the first established west of the Mississippi River. Graduate instruction began as early as 1886 when the Board of Regents established the residency and thesis requirements for earning the masters degree. By 1896 a Graduate School was organized with a designated faculty under the leadership of a dean.

WHAT DOES GRADUATING FROM NEBRASKA MEAN TO YOU?
Graduating from UNL means that I have a degree that is respected across the country.

PLANS AFTER GRADUATION:
I plan to start my career at Lutz Financial in Omaha, Nebraska. I will also be working on passing all four parts of the CPA exam.

After graduation, I am most looking forward to getting some real-world experience, starting a new chapter in life, and making a lot of money.

The best thing about being a Husker is getting a quality education from the college of business that is respected across the country.

THANK YOU MESSAGE:
Dear Mrs. Charlie Foster,

I want to thank you for being who you are. You're one of the kindest people I've met on campus and have been a consistent, positive light during my time here. I'm going to miss you!!

Thanks,
Terry

Meet Sydney Allen, a member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe from Rapid City, South Dakota who recently graduated with her master's in civil engineering. On and off campus, she’s making a difference in Native American communities.

“One goal I set — when I decided to get my master’s degree — was to someday teach at a tribal college. Specifically, I want to teach math and/or physics. Tribal colleges are generally two-year programs and are absolutely essential in preparing students for a four-year program. People sometimes shy away from pursuing STEM degrees because they don’t think that they are naturally good at math or physics, but I think that is a myth. Anyone who has a passion for it, and is willing to put in the effort, can succeed. That is why I want to teach at a tribal college — to give students a strong base in those subjects and raise their confidence levels. That way they are better prepared to successfully complete a STEM degree. Native people bring a unique perspective and we need more of us in a position to share that perspective and be heard.”
