Career counseling provides assistance in self-exploration, deciding what major fits you, what careers suit you, and how to investigate the job market. It involves talking to a career counselor and, occasionally, taking interest and personality tests
 Students who are undecided, confused, or bewildered are excellent candidates for career counseling. Common issues for students coming to career counseling include:
- Is graduate school or a job most suitable after graduation?
- Finding that first job that best meets long-term goals.
- How do I balance school and career goals as first year student?
- What majors fit my career plans or what career paths fit my major?
- As a graduate student, do I seek an academic job or one in industry?
- How do I develop better interviewing and networking skills?
Often, students simply need to be assured that their approach to career development is sensible. The Career Center uses a developmental approach that adjusts counseling to the experience and background of each student.
The Career Center offers counseling appointments for all of these and other career-related issues. Some may be handled during our drop-in hours, which occur daily from 10:00am to 12:00pm and 1:30pm to 4:30pm. These 10 minute appointments are to address easy issues. Requests must be made in person the same day. No appointments can be made by phone or email.
To discuss more complex issues we recommend that you make an appointment with a member of our counseling staff.
