The office of Career Services is focused on connecting TTU students and graduates to employers. We work diligently to provide students with opportunities to meet with employers regarding experiential education and full-time job opportunities. Career Services staff members coordinate on-campus job fairs, conduct skill-building workshops, host on-campus interviews, and assist students in making the transition from college to career successfully. Students may participate in one-on-one career counseling and advisement. In addition to assisting in the college to career transition, students pursuing admission to graduate and professional schools are also encouraged to seek assistance from our staff.
