Student Profile

Aubrey Hileman, '17

B.S. in Accounting and a B.S. in Business Administration, with a concentration in Economics and Finance

"The Center for Career and Professional Development helped me identify my personal and professional career goals, and assisted me with creating a plan of action. I received invaluable advice regarding career planning and tips on resume and cover letter writing.

Without the Center for Career and Professional Development, I would not have been able to achieve my goal of securing a full-time job before graduation."

Student Profile

Jason Williamson, '17

B.S. in Psychology & minor in Philosophy

I returned to school after a number of years working in customer-service fields. My goal with my undergraduate degree was to aim for a future in graduate school. To get where I am, it took a community of people willing to invest in supporting me through the obstacles along the way. Each year in my undergraduate degree, it took a different learning strategy to be successful. I could not have navigated these strategies without help.

Staying in constant contact with the Career Development office was a vital component to being accepted into my first choice of PhD programs. I am looking forward to spending my future in a career that I love.
