Career Center

Students are encouraged to contact the Career Center while they are in school to utilize the provided services in the development of their long‑range planning.� The staff assists students with career counseling through evaluation and testing in the areas of skills analysis, interest identification, and values clarification.� A Career Resource Library that contains occupational and employer information is also available.

The Career Center provides pre‑employment preparation assistance through mock interviews and a variety of workshops on such topics as r�sum� writing, business letter writing, identifying marketable skills, interviewing skills, and conducting an effective job search. A resume editor is available to critique student resumes and professional documents.� Representatives of business, government, industry, education, and social agencies recruit UTD students at Career Expos and on‑campus interviews. Part-time jobs, both on-campus and off-campus, full-time jobs, and on-campus interview schedules are posted through an online database called UTD CareerWorks.� The Career Center also manages the Internship/Cooperative Education program for all majors, except EE/CS majors.

All students register for UTD CareerWorks by accessing the Career Center website.� Students upload a r�sum� into the system in order to apply for qualified positions or to make it available for employer referrals. Employers may have access to candidate r�sum�s via various web r�sum� books set up in the UTD CareerWorks system.
