Vision

First Year and Career Services envisions a community where students own and shape their personal and professional journeys, aligning their values and interests with meaningful careers. Through self-assessment and exploration, we guide students to develop career paths that enhance their lives and contribute to their communities.  We offer a welcoming, supportive, and diverse environment that values each person’s uniqueness and empowers students to embrace their identities as they navigate their futures.
