Caleb Joseph is part of the inaugural cohort of the @FloridaState DC Study Away Program! Joseph — a senior in @FSUComputerSci at @FSUartssciences — is presently in Washington, D.C. for @CapitalOne's Analyst Intern Program. "At Capital One, I drive data-informed business decisions by conducting analysis and model refinement on credit line increase program data, and fine-tuning machine learning policies to improve second-order risk evaluation. I would like to share the importance of being involved outside the classroom, as the majority of my opportunities have come from putting myself out there and getting involved." Directed by @FSUCareerCenter, the DC Study Away Program allows full-time enrolled degree seeking FSU students completing internships to live in a supportive community with their peers, where they can focus on their internships while benefiting from shared support and connection.

Weikuan Yu, Ph.D. in the Department of Computer Science, (@FSUComputerSci), was awarded an $85,000 Lawrence Livermore National Lab grant for research on data reduction for efficient checkpoints and restarts of large language model applications. 💻🧠📊

The commencement festivities are in full swing at @FloridaState, and we're celebrating our #FSU2026 grads! 🎓 Philip Quattrochi will cross the stage on Friday evening to receive his bachelor's degree in computer science (@FSUComputerSci), and as part of FSU Air Force ROTC, he'll also be commissioning as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force. "FSU provided me with the opportunity to do anything I've ever wanted professionally. I was able to grow as a leader, receive a helicopter training slot, and learn more about my passion for computer science all at once." As one of 28 cadets nationwide selected for the Helicopter Training Next program, Quattrochi will soon begin training at Fort Rucker in Alabama to pilot Combat Search and Rescue missions.

Actuaries thrive on data, which they use to analyze the financial impact of hurricanes and other natural disasters, manage catastrophe risk in business, forecast population growth or shrinkage, help individuals plan for retirement and more. For almost three decades, @FloridaState's actuarial science undergraduate degree program — an interdisciplinary collaboration among @FSUMathematics, @FSUComputerSci, @StatisticsFSU and @FSUWertheim — has prepared graduates for crucial roles in a wide range of industries.
