About

Prepare Students for What's Next

Portland State students are the future workforce of our city and region—and your support can help ensure they’re ready to lead, innovate and make an impact.

Career and academic readiness efforts span classrooms, programs and departments across PSU. Your gift can support hands-on learning, career preparation and the academic experiences that help students turn knowledge into real-world skills.

From internships and career coaching to course-based projects, workshops and specialized program offerings, these opportunities help students build confidence, gain experience and make meaningful connections.

Your gift can:

  • Expand access to internships and experiential learning opportunities
  • Support academic programs, courses and student-centered initiatives
  • Provide career coaching, resume support and networking opportunities
  • Fund workshops, conferences and professional development experiences

When students are prepared for what comes next, they don’t just earn degrees—they launch meaningful careers.

Make your gift today and help PSU students turn their education into opportunity.
