Mission

Career Services strives to:

  • Help students to develop competence and confidence in the career planning and job search process.
  • Empower students to discover their unique talents, gifts, skills, and values.
  • Foster career exploration and decision-making through experiential learning activities.
  • Provide appropriate up-to-date career-related information and resources.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with organizations that offer meaningful community engagement and career opportunities to students and alumni.

 

Students and alumni are encouraged to explore their career options by meeting with a counselor on an individual basis. A career counseling session might include self-assessment, career or job research, goal setting strategies, or resume writing. We also offer a wide range of career classes for day undergraduate students, such as Job Search Strategies, Career Planning, Business Etiquette, and Internships.

Throughout the year, Career Services sponsors a variety of special events and activities on campus. Check our calendar for details. In addition, Career Services is a resource center with job/internship listings, computers for students, reference books and materials, and a friendly staff who can help you find career-related information.
