Students - Career Education and Professional Development

Many times students ask, “What careers go with my major…?” or “What sorts of things are expected of Sales Representatives?” In response, the OPCD will offer individualized assistance through Career Coaches by individual appointment and through office “walk-in” hours.  Assistance will include various career assessments to help students connect their interests, skills, values, and personality traits with potential career fields to investigate.

Other venues for employers to share their stories on their firms / industries / career fields as either individual presentations, or as part of a panel of employers may come in classes and / or in student organizations. Watch your class syllabuses, the bulletin boards in the Lowder Building, and keep watch on your own specific student organization’s calendar for upcoming events. OPCD would be glad to assist you with contacting speakers to come speak to your organization about a topic of interest.
