Career Services is here to help by providing individual and group career counseling to undergraduate students, graduate students, and alumni.
Whether you’re exploring the link between your major and potential careers, sorting out your values and interests to discover the right job for you, drafting your first resume or conducting your first professional interview, we’ve got you covered! Appointments take place in a friendly, confidential setting on a weekly, monthly, or as-needed basis to explore and execute your career plan.
