Prepare for Your Future

Career preparation begins the moment you arrive on campus. From leadership opportunities to a first-year seminar to a seven-week Career Preparation Course, you’ll learn to master the art of telling your story, build and nurture your network and refine your professional presence. And when you’re ready, you’ll have the opportunity to apply for funds for a job shadow, to attend a conference, and find an internship, supported by the Hale Center's Flexible Funds.

As you dive into your major and pathway or center, you’ll connect your coursework to off-campus learning experiences, internships and other professional development opportunities. And you’ll do it all with the support of a team of advisers who will help you tailor your experience to give you the skills to identify, develop and pursue your career goals.

At the Hale Center for Career Development, you connect the dots between your interests and experiences to discover a career and put the liberal arts to work in a way that’s uniquely yours.

Because of the Hale Center for Career Development, I am confident that I will succeed in the professional realm.
