ICS alumni work in a wide range of careers: foreign & home missions, international education, the local church, urban ministries, non-profit organizations, child welfare ministries, and international development. Graduate study for ICS alumni has included: intercultural studies, TEFL, theology, linguistics, social work, organizational leadership, education, public health, marriage and family counseling, and individual counseling.
