The Career Development Center (CDC) promotes a practical developmental approach towards helping students find a self actualizing career direction; one in which individuals find success and fulfillment. Our office encourages all students to take responsibility for managing their careers and the directions they may take. Students are encouraged to begin their career planning during their freshman year or their first year in graduate school to become informed about career resources in the CDC.

Our contention is that career development is an ongoing process that begins with self-assessment, exploration and research, experiental learning, and career informed decision-making in choosing to enter the work force or graduate/professional school.

Towards these ends, we advocate a career management model, for entering students, which integrates a wide variety of exploration activities, career experience program, and networking opportunities. In order to provide these services, a team approach is used within our office to coordinate efforts among faculty, company recruiters and alumni. In this manner, many different types of resources are focused upon the career needs and goals of our students.
