Career Planning Programs and Services
The Office of Career Planning’s programs and services are designed to support our students’ and alumni’s ability to thrive within their personal and professional lives. All initiatives of the Office are driven by four primary learning goals that foster self-understanding as well as the abilities to actively engage with others, assess viable data to inform decisions, and advocate for oneself. To accomplish this, the staff take great pride in collaborating with the wide variety of academic departments on campus, the Office of Alumni and Engagement, and employer/community partners.
