What makes your college a great place to work?

President's Statement

The University of South Carolina Upstate provides endless opportunities to pursue passions, shatter expectations, explore new avenues, dive deep into your interests, and find out who you are. This is true for our students - for whom we pull out all the stops to offer hands-on learning that translates to real-world success - as well as for our faculty, staff, alumni, and community. That makes USC Upstate a great place to learn, live, grow, and, yes, work.

Employee Comment

The mission aligns well with my values. Senior leadership is genuinely committed to that mission, which makes it a pleasure to hear broader news of how the institution is expanding work in the community and launching new initiatives. Our students are a joy to work with and it is great to belong to a faculty committed to teaching first.
