The LACS major prepares students with analytical skills, research experience, and regional knowledge that can serve them on a variety of career paths. Our alums have gone on to have careers in non-profit organizations, consulting firms, media, and even to serve on the King County City Council. Here you can find resources and learn about the experiences of LACS alums.
