Here at the Career Development Center, we believe that our job is to equip students to help themselves develop their career. When we help you with resumes, interviewing skills, or deciding on your major, we hope that you will not only be able to write a resume, answer a question, or make a decision, but learn from the experience and be able to apply those skills you learn to different situations you will encounter in the future.
One of the best ways we felt we could empower you to do just that is by giving you a resource that will guide you through the whole process of finding a job or applying to grad school in a way that makes sense to you. We started to organize the information in our website to meet the needs of students at different starting points, and with different learning styles: Auditory, Visual, or Hands-on.

GOALS breaks that down for you, and guides you through that process. Whether you’re a first year student, a graduate student, or an alum making a career change, GOALS can help you transition smoothly from where you’re at to where you want to be in your career. The program even lets you know which of our in-person and distance services would be useful to you!
Curious? Go see for yourself what GOALS is all about!
