Our Goal: A Holistic Approach to Supporting Students’ Career Development

The SBS Office of Career & Professional Development provides information and resources for faculty and staff who wish to better support their students in exploring their options for whatever comes after UMass. We know you get questions from students about this, and we want to make sure you are comfortable, confident, and equipped with the resources you need to provide students with the guidance and referrals they seek.

We all want our students to feel supported in these important conversations, and in their exploration, and we look forward to partnering with you to share how our office supports students, to provide resources you can access at any time, to help you integrate career-related content, to schedule class presentations, and more.
