Welcome to the College of Business Community!
At Career Connections, we serve as a connecting point between students, faculty, alumni, and employers in an increasingly diverse and globally influenced job market. Throughout the academic year, Career Connections facilitates workshops, reviews resumes, and hosts events to help students develop solid career readiness skills.
