Career Fairs

Career Fairs allow students and alumni to meet employers to talk about full-time, part-time, volunteer, and internship opportunities. We also host a fair for students and alumni to meet representatives from graduate and professional schools and to learn about various graduate programs.

Not quite ready for a job or graduate school? Career fairs are still a great way to prepare, as you will have the opportunity to network with recruiters/representatives, to learn about the opportunities that are out there, and to ask questions about requirements and applications.

Career fairs and other events are offered throughout the year. View our current calendar of events.
