After Commencement

The success of Pratt Munson’s offerings is attested to by an active organization of Pratt Munson alumni who keep in touch and return to meet with undergraduates. Pratt Munson helps its graduates and undergraduates through job referrals, information about grants, graduate programs, and other professional matters. Graduates support Pratt Munson by participating as guest lecturers in their classes, notifying them about employment opportunities, and advising them on ways to keep art and design relevant.
