Kickoff Fall ’23 on the right foot!
Welcome to the Fall ’23 semester! This semester is packed with incredible opportunities for you to explore different career paths, discover your interests, receive guidance, find internships or jobs, learn about/apply to graduate school, and much more. We highly encourage you to make the most of everything that’s available to you.
To help you keep track of all the career education and training, career coaching, networking, and career fair opportunities, we’ve listed them by date below through the end of September. If you prefer to search by interest, just use the gray box to find what you’re looking for. You can even share these amazing opportunities with your friends using the QR code provided. Everything kicks off as soon as you return, so we suggest you don’t wait too long.
We want to highlight that the Career Fair is the most important event of the Fall ’23 semester. This exciting event will take place on September 13th from noon to 4 p.m. Be sure to save the date and plan to attend!
