The Collective

The Collective

Step into The Collective, a premier professional forum hosted by ALPFA Rutgers New Brunswick in collaboration with partner student organizations and industry sponsors, bringing together professionals from organizations such as JPMorgan Chase, Vanguard, Ernst & Young (EY), The Antoine Law Firm, LLC, and many more across finance, technology, engineering, marketing, consulting, and law.

This immersive event invites students to engage with industry leaders, ask meaningful questions, hear career journeys, and discover pathways that align with their goals. Rather than a traditional networking session, The Collective is a hands-on experience that encourages genuine conversations, mentorship, and career exploration.

Created to bridge the gap between academic learning and professional development, The Collective offers students direct access to leaders who exemplify excellence, authenticity, and purpose-driven leadership. Come ready to learn, participate, and build relationships that can help shape your future.
