Extractions: The Career Development Staff is professionally trained to assist students in their career decision making, career planning and job search throughout college. Student questions and needs are diverse and so are the services. The staff strives to provide the best possible service regardless of career interests or college major. The Center's philosophy is to support students in their decisions. Staff will assist students as much as possible through career counseling, workshops and support services that have been designed to work to their advantage. The bottom line; however, is that the responsibility for making decisions, planning, securing employment, gaining admission to graduate school or otherwise planning for life after graduation rests with the student. Career Development services are available on a walk-in or appointment basis and staff are conducting workshops on a regular basis. Students are invited to visit the Career Library, use computers available for resumes and cover letters, schedule time for DISCOVER (a computer-based career guidance system), or register to receive job vacancy listings. Staff are also reaching out to potential employers and graduate school programs to increase opportunities for students. Students need to take the initiative to contact the Center. Career issues affect everyone and are an important consideration for most students; however, it is easy to procrastinate given the demands and diversity of college life.

Contact Us Quick Links Home Calendar Apply Admissions Academic Financial Forms U-Mail Search Contact Us Undertaking a graduate education is a serious commitment. There are important distinctions between the types of degrees available. The Undergraduate Experience American undergraduate education is typically a time for students to experiment in a wide range of disciplines and general education courses discover what holds the most interest for them. Students select a major, but are not expected to dedicate their entire educational experience to this subject alone as might be the case in other countries. The Master's Degree Master's degrees vary across the range of disciplines, but some generalizations can be made about them. A master's degree typically takes from 1.5-3 years, depending on discipline and requirements. Students seeking a master's degree are expected to attain a certain level of mastery (hence the name) of a specific subject, although not as complete as at the doctoral level. Students must learn a language or a quantitative method related to their field of study and produce a significant thesis or pass a demanding comprehensive exam at the end of their studies.
