Get the Skills You Need

Gain real-world experience and earn credit for your major through our internship programs.

Career Resources

There are numerous campus resources to help you prepare for your future career and land your first job. We offer two one-unit courses to help you get started. You can also visit the SBS Career Hub Resource page for more information. 

Learn how design thinking can help you explore your life and career opportunities in this one-unit course. You'll develop a plan for engagement and skill-building experiences that will allow you to test your ideas for a life plan that integrates work and personal values.

Design a personal plan for searching for a job or internship. You'll gain knowledge about timelines, resources, and expectations of a successful search and reflect on how your personal skills have value in your desired career path. You should take this course when you are in an active search for a job or internship.

 

The College of Social & Behavioral Sciences Career Hub can help connect you with the resources you need to leverage your education into professional opportunities. As an SBS student you will have access to customized content and resources through a Brightspace page entitled, SBS Students Career Hub. You can log into this page using your Net ID and password. Special events, jobs, alumni panels, and career fairs will be shared through this site. More asynchronous resources can be found under the Content tab.

There are many resources available through the University of Arizona Center for Career Readiness. Services include career exploration, job search tools, resume resources, and interviewing tips. 

You can also connect with employers through the UA's Handshake tool. Current students and recent graduates (within one year) already have an account. Simply sign in with your NetID and password.
