Pace University News

Pace University is accepting nominations for the Trustee Award and Community Service Award, honoring exceptional graduating students for their academic excellence and community impact. Submit your nomination by Friday, February 27, 2026!

Fifty students. Six sessions. One life-changing experience. As the Center for Leadership and Emotional Intelligence wraps its inaugural program, leaders from across Pace reflect on its impact and share their vision for the future.

Higher education is being reshaped by rapid change and leadership matters more than ever. This fall, we welcomed Ajay Khorana, PhD, as dean of the Lubin School of Business and Brian Goldstein, PhD, as dean of the College of Health Professions, two accomplished leaders whose expertise bridges academic rigor, industry insight, and student outcomes.

Being able to analyze data in this day and age will take you very far. For so long, business students have been taught that spreadsheets are “King,” but the ability to extricate meaning from data is what will set them apart from the masses vying for top spots in companies and organizations. Sarita Himthani ’25 shares her thoughts on the importance of data science and its application across industries. Professor Vishal Lala, who teaches quantitative courses in marketing at Lubin, offers his expertise on industry’s need for data scientists who understand business. Prepare for the future by being data literate.

Palak Bharti ’25 turned her time at Pace into a 360° graduate experience—balancing research, entrepreneurship, campus leadership, and the fast pace of NYC. Her journey shows how far curiosity and courage can take you.
