Career Design


Are you ready to kickstart your future? 

With a little planning, you can design your ideal career and begin building the skills necessary to be successful in that field before graduation. 

We recommend that you begin the career counseling process in your Freshman year to decide on the direction you want your future to take, as well as the major that will best help you get there. By Sophomore year, you should have already completed a few professional development activities (PDAs) and have a solid resume. Junior year is the perfect time to hone those interview skills and venture into the working world with an internship, and by Senior year you should have an ATS-compliant resume highlighting your skills and experience, with the knowledge needed tom launch your job search, graduate school applications, or to successfully transition into other post graduate plans. 

Follow the suggested 4-year Career Design Plan below!
