The Aggie network is unparalleled. Firms know that they are hiring a quality applicant just on the fact that they are an Aggie. Ethics is cemented into our being with the Aggie Honor Code displayed in every classroom and required to sign on each test. (The Honor Code being: An Aggie does not lie, cheat, steal or tolerate those who do.) The numbers strongly support the fact that Aggies are easy to hire, with job placement rates post-graduation being very high.
