The Undergraduate Career Management Overview

The F. David Fowler Career Center (FDFCC) team is committed to building strategic partnerships among students, alumni, and employers that result in successful, fulfilling careers for our students. As an undergraduate student you have ready access to the guidance and training of dedicated career management professionals to assist you in finding the best fit for your skills, values, and interests.

In addition to extensive career resources and job search assistance, students are introduced to a structured RISE: Four Year Career Management Process, using a methodology called Ultimate Career Launch. Your relationship with the FDFCC career coaching team begins when you arrive on campus.

Individualized strategy sessions with your career coach take place throughout your undergraduate years and are designed to be thought provoking and results-oriented.

A variety of print and Online Career Resources complement your research in industry and job functions, creation of target lists, and preparation for interviews. In particular our GWorkSB.com system is the main source for announcements, event registration and online recruiting.

At FDFCC, our relationships with students are built on mutual respect, professionalism, and goal-oriented strategic action.
