Inclusive Resources for Affinity Groups

Affinity groups are members of certain communities that share a similar experience. Here we have gathered resources from across the internet to help affinity group individuals in their career search. Members of every affinity group have unique, and unparallel experiences that create personalized identities and possible barriers to education and career success. This guide aims to cater to the specific needs of different affinity groups by catering to concerns posed by said unique challenges.

It is important to remember that you’re not alone, and resources such as the Purdue College of Science Career Development office are here to help guide the way. We have a commitment to serving students of all backgrounds, assisting all to overcome barriers and pursue a fulfilling career.

Here are the current affinity groups we have designated resources for in alphabetical order: 

• Disability
• First-Generation College Students
• International Population 
• LGBTQIA+ 
• Military or Veteran Status
• Multicultural Diversity 
• Nontraditional Students
