Programs

We know how important it is for learning to also happen outside of the classroom. We work to connect employers and students with career-related opportunities that allow students to gain hands-on experience in an occupation or industry before graduating.

This program connects employers and students through recruitment activities and initiatives. We help employers schedule individual interviews, information sessions and tables, as well as classroom presentations.

Learn more

Woo hoo, you graduated! Now what? As an alumni, you still have access to Career and Professional Services. Reach out to us for career coaching, mock interviews, and other job search support.
