Internships and Career Development Office

Once you’ve declared a major, you’ll work with your academic adviser in that department and can partner with our office to build internships and other career exploration activities into your long-range academic plan.

Here are some of the ways our office helps students throughout their college journey:

• Help with finding internship or externship opportunities
• Classes and workshops on résumé writing, career exploration, interviewing skills, and job search strategies
• Resources for researching graduate schools and professional training programs

• "Thinking Beyond College" seminars
• Graduate and law school workshops and consultations
