SBA Undergraduate Career Services

The School of Business Administration Career Services is committed to helping you launch your career in business and help every business student conduct an efficient and effective internship and job search.

• We work one-on-one with students as they explore their career choices, create an effective and targeted resume, and implement a successful internship and job search.
• We offer specialized programs and events throughout the year, such as Industry Experts Panels, Executive Speakers, and Employer in the Foyer to provide students with access to thought-leaders and recruiters in their area of interest.
• The Professional Development Passport Program, a graduation requirement of the School of Business, provides students with the tools to develop both professionalism and important professional contacts.
• Students are strongly encouraged to take advantage of all the great opportunities for their career development. Career Services hosts a number of career-related activities such as workshops, career fairs, networking events and guest speakers.

  “There are many intricacies when it comes to job searing and networking. It is better to learn from an experienced person who can give you great tips so you don't make the blunders that many students make when they first start networking. Career services can help you get started on the right foot and increase your chances of getting a job. They can tell you the "do's" and "dont's" of networking and job searching.” -Senior, Business Administration

“Career Services gave me the confidence to confront the uncertainty that looms after graduation. Finding a job can seem overwhelming. Christy helped me to construct a resume that I am proud of and directed me to a fountain of resources and professional contacts. I cannot imagine going through this process without her guidance.
