The Career and Life Design Center helps students and alumni explore career options, design their career and life journeys, and make meaningful connections. Our center uses life design principles and the career launch model to help students clarify their options and take the next steps when they’re ready. Here, you can explore internship and career opportunities, strengthen your job search skills, build valuable connections for your future, and visit our Walk-In Studio Experience (W.I.S.E) and Professional Clothing Studio.
