Integrating Career Development into a Course Curriculum
This PDW explores the extent to which professors have a responsibility for integrating career preparation into course curriculum. Employers have high expectations for entry-level employees, and career development centers can’t serve all students. Should professors help with career skills such as developing career focus, resume preparation and interview practice? If so, what are some effective ways of integrating this work into the curriculum. Participants will engage in these discussions and learn about a career focus activity that the authors have used effectively.
