WHERE DO I BEGIN? |
| Career Exploration Students who are just beginning the career development process need to perform considerable self-examination before considering an academic major or career path. All College of Business Administration students will take Career Development I and II, BUAD 2000 and 3000. These two required courses lead students on a logical progression through the four stages of career development. However, students who wish to get a 'head start', prior to taking Career Development I and II, may considering visiting The Occupational Outlook Handbook or Americas's CareerInfoNet, two of the most widely used, respected resources for occupational information. |
