ACSN invites all alumni career services professionals to join us for our annual conference at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Learn more about Durham (or ‘Dur’m’ to locals).
 
Durham, North Carolina has a rich cultural history and a thriving present, with a celebrated food and arts scene and a buzzing start-up culture. Don’t miss strolling through downtown, where former tobacco warehouses have been turned into restaurants, bars, galleries, and living spaces, and where you can see the creativity of entrepreneurs who build on the historic legacy of the city’s Black Wallstreet.

In addition, Durham is part of the Research Triangle area, which includes the cities of Durham, Raleigh, and Chapel Hill as well as UNC Chapel Hill, NC State University, NC Central University, the Research Triangle Park and major employers such as Red Hat, SAS, Lenovo, GlaxoSmithKline, and IQVIA. The Triangle area has been ranked as the #6 best place to live in the United States and a top 5 place for recent college grads.
