Open to the public, the Career Services Center provides assistance for anyone interested in exploring a career. Through advising, testing, workshops, and resource materials, students and others can develop a career plan. Students can also receive assistance with resume and cover letter writing and interviewing skills. If you already know the field you're leaning toward, you'll find information in the Center to help you fine-tune your options.

The Center is located on the Napier Avenue Campus, in room C-204. Open Monday - Friday from 8am - 5pm, and evenings by appointment.
