Services Offered

Guidance

We welcome you and support you through every key stage of your academic journey: choosing a program, changing your major, finding internships, and looking for a job.

A career counselor is always available to assist you with your research in the library— by appointment in the morning and walk-in in the afternoon.

Reorientation

We're here to support you and provide information about the various options for changing career paths:
  • Changing majors during the academic year (joining a bachelor's program in the second semester, Bachelor's of Technology (BUT) programs offered with staggered start dates, and open spots in BTS programs).
  • Steps to take to enroll in a new program for the upcoming school year.
  • Springboard Module: This four-week module allows students to take stock of their situation and actively prepare for admission to a BTS, BUT, a specialized school, or possibly another bachelor’s degree program.

Employment Placement

We offer guidance on job search, internship, and work-study program techniques. Some Resume and Cover Letter Drop-In Sessions take place every Thursday afternoon.
