Career and Professional Development
Meet Our Career Team!
As soon as you set foot on the hilltop, you are able to meet with a Career and Professional Development (CAPD) team member to discuss choosing a major/career. You will also build connections with potential employers, create a better understanding of yourself and your career options (through assessments) and search for roles both on and off the hilltop. You have access to CAPD services, programming, resources, and tools as a student and as an alumni.
