Career Development
The Career Development Service is offered to assist students and alumni with career planning and job search. Student Affairs is available to assist students in deciding their major, assessing their skills and interests, exploring job information, writing resumes and cover letters, polishing interview skill, and developing job- search strategies. Student Affairs assist students by helping them relate their career goals to their educational goals. This process begins in the freshman year using personal interest, values, skills, and experiences and expands throughout a student’s university years to resume development, internships, graduate college planning and job search.
