To empower students to make informed, intentional career decisions is the mission of Career Studies & Services, also known as the Career Center. At the Career Center, students find the instruction, guidance, and resources they need to prepare to successfully transition from an academic environment to a professional workplace environment. In addition to courses in career and life planning, internships, and cooperative work experience education, the Career Center offers career counseling, assessment, exploration, and workshops. The Career Center also assists students with developing the skills they need to successfully conduct job and internship searches.
The Career Center's website offers 1-3 minute videos about how to prepare for obtaining professional employment, an online resume and cover letter workshop, and information about how to leverage your networks to discover potential opportunities through our online job search boot camp. At our campus location, students may access the computers in our lab and the resources in our library. The lab is equipped with up-to-date career and employability skills software and access to relevant Internet sites. The library's resources include a collection of print materials and DVDs on a variety of careers, labor market forecasts, and all aspects of preparing for an employment search.
The Career Center's services are offered through individual sessions and group workshops on either a walk-in or by-appointment basis. More information is available at the Career Center's website.
