Career and Professional Development Advising

As part of SBS Pathways, students begin their career and professional development early in their undergraduate experience in order to ensure the integration of their total university experience and a successful transition from school to work or to further study. In collaboration with Campus Career Services, the SBS Advising Resource Center provides programs and assistance to College of Social and Behavioral Sciences students for career and professional development.  

Staff are available to help students make intelligent, well-informed career choices, and to provide undergraduates with opportunities to obtain experience through internships, cooperative education, and service learning programs.
