The Center for Career Education is dedicated to the career and professional development of all Millsaps students, and is the primary contact for employers seeking to provide career and professional development opportunities. We connect students with relevant resources and equip them with the knowledge and tools to explore majors, make career decisions and seek post-graduate opportunities. We recognize that faculty and staff are vital partners in each student’s career and professional success.

The Center for Career Education can help organize, facilitate, or present on any such topics. We invite opportunities for collaboration in preparing Millsaps students for career success:

  • Coordinating a panel of alumni and other professionals working in a specific industry
  • Hosting representatives from graduate and professional school programs in a particular discipline
  • Facilitating workshops to practice articulating students’ experience through the development of resumes, personal statements, or other self-marketing materials
  • Guiding students through exploring strengths and interests to make informed career decisions
  • Exploring and implementing strategies to infuse the NACE Career Readiness Competencies in curricular and co-curricular programs and activities

Classroom Presentations

The Center for Career Education has a wide range of topics and activities for classroom presentations. Our staff is available to speak to your classes during the semester. In order to provide you and your students with the best services possible, please send in any presentation requests at least two weeks in advance.

Don’t Cancel Class: If you will not be available to teach a class, consider inviting us to present on a topic of your choice in your absence rather than canceling class.

If you have any questions, please contact us at careereducation@millsaps.edu.
