The Career Connections Center prepares students for careers in an increasingly competitive global job market. Career Connections helps students maximize their college experience and create a unique combination of education, experience and skills for success in the ever-changing world of work.  We encourage all students to connect with their Career Consultant to define and refine their career goals. From choosing a major, getting career-related experience, creating a job search strategy, or a graduate school plan, one of our nationally accredited Career Consultants can guide students every step of the way.
