Who is My Career Coach?
Career Coach liaisons are assigned by career communities (with academic majors listed to provide clarity) and can be found on the list below. Career Coaches can meet with students of any major, but if your liaison's schedule meets your availability, they would be the best choice. If no Career Coach is listed for your major, please schedule with the first available coach.
All Career Coaching appointments should be scheduled in Handshake. Please schedule an appointment with your Career Coach to connect with them.
