Frequently Asked Questions:

Who does the Career Center serve?

Prospective students, students, and alumni.

What major will guarantee me a job?

No major guarantees you a job. In fact, many job seekers are surprised to learn that employers care more about your experience than your specific major. Employers want to see how you apply your classroom learning to your professional self. A major will not define your career path or close off opportunities for you. Pick a major you are interested in and work towards gaining real world experience while you are in school.
