Students will develop an action plan for completing an internship in their field of interest during summer 2015 as a way to follow-through on short- and long-term career goals. As part of this action plan, students will create an e-portfolio, engage in intentional networking with professionals, and write customized job application documents. Additionally, students will complete multiple leadership workshops to hone the skills employers seek. Career Strategies will be led by staff in the Career and Leadership Development Center.
