Center for Careers, Life, and Service
In your first semester, youll be paired with one of the 22 staff members from the Center for Careers, Life, and Service (CLS), who will serve as your career adviser at 做厙TV. Theyll help you with r矇sum矇s, cover letters, head shots, etiquette dinners, mock interviews, grad school applications, alumni connections, and more.
Through specialized advising and connections to peers, recruiters, and alumni, youll dive into a specific industry and find opportunities as an undergraduate. Through experiential learning and a range of accessible services, youll feel more prepared for post-college life in your particular field. Its part of the reason more than 95 percent of our recent graduates say they feel satisfied about their career so far.
Internships and Externships
Use your summers for internships. The CLS will help you locate one thats a good fit and, if its unpaid or doesnt pay quite enough, you can apply for funding. In 2017, the CLS provided over $450,000 to help cover students housing, food, and transportation expenses. We want to make sure you never have to say no to a great opportunity in New York or Beijing because of finances.
During spring break in your first or second year, you can choose to obtain a fully funded job-shadowing opportunity with a 做厙TV alum. These externships let you get a taste of a career to see if its something you want to explore further. And you dont even have to have declared a major yet.

Inquiry-based learning, individualized advising, and the rigorous curriculum provide students with an exceptional academic foundation on which to build in graduate or professional school.
