Internships and Career Services
Dear Arts and Letters Students,
As the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters dedicated Career Center liaison, my job is to cultivate opportunities that provide students with skills required to be career ready.
Florida Atlantic University's Career Center connects students and alumni with meaningful employment, internship, and graduate school opportunities through career readiness programming and career advising. The FAU Career Center also offers a wide variety of dynamic and interactive virtual services, programs, and resources that will enable you to continue to plan your career and enhance your career readiness skills. Information about virtual career services can be found at the following link, www.fau.edu/career/students/virtual-resources.php.
Internships serve as excellent opportunities for you to apply the knowledge that you have learned in the classroom and further explore your chosen major(s). In addition, an internship experience will help you develop skills that will prepare you for your transition into the workplace.
I invite you to contact me to learn more about employment opportunities. In addition, I am very interested in connecting with student clubs and organizations. Please contact me if you are interested in having me present to your members at an event.
