Description
Our Career Panels program is a unique program that gives students an opportunity to meet and interact with a diverse group of professionals representing a wide variety of occupations. Armed with practical advice about their field of work and tips on getting ahead in the "real world," these career representatives come to give our students an authentic look at the daily activities and responsibilities involved with various professions through classroom lectures and discussions.
