The Becker Career Center gives students and alumni resources and access to internships, potential employers and graduate programs. Trained counselors help students develop five core professional competencies: career decision-making (including self-assessment, exploration and reflection), resume writing, cover letter writing, interviewing and networking. Students may call or stop by to schedule an appointment.

The center houses a wealth of online and print career research tools that allow students to research careers, locate employers in their field or geographic area, and find internship and job postings. It maintains an extensive alumni network, sponsors career days and job fairs, and promotes internships with local organizations.
