Career Services: For Students 
 

 

 

 

Welcome to the Office of Career Services WebSite!  Career Services has designed this website to assist students and alumni with the career development and job search process.  It is important that students start thinking about career development early in their academic career.  If you have any questions regarding this site, career development or the job search I encourage you to contact the Office of Career Services.  In closing, I wish you much success with all your career related endeavors.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Thomas F. Korvas, Ph.D.

Director, Office of Career Services
