What Can I Do With My Degree?
With: Career Services
Time: 9am-10am
Link: Check your student email for the link or email [email protected]
Many students pick their area of study based on their interest more than a clear vision of what career path that degree will put them on; and that is ok! It can be challenging to know what is available and what is out there before you begin working in the professional world. Join Career Services virtually for this event!
