Career and Student Employment
Career Services
Career Services cultivates students' purpose through career exploration and planning. Students are equipped to build their careers with the support of industry specialists who foster company partnerships that yield internships, graduate school options, and jobs nationwide. With faculty connections and an alumni network 90,000+ strong, students enhance their professional development. Fifty percent of our seniors have jobs on graduation day.
Student Employment
Our Student Employment Office serves both students and supervisors in the on- and off-campus employment process. Working provides more than a paycheck, as student employees have opportunities for career exploration, resume building, and networking that ultimately helps prepare them for lives of purpose, service and leadership.
Internship Opportunities
We provide local access to a wide variety of leading companies in major industries in and around Los Angeles, and our network of employers reaches into many other major markets as well. Students' internship experiences are integral to jumpstarting careers upon graduation. Our commitment to working with students to compete for highly-selective positions contributes to our high rates of employment after college.
