Our new Harold Meese Career Center was designed to accommodate corporate interviewers and help get you that first job. More than 200 companies recruited on campus in 1997-98. 95 percent of our reporting graduates were employed, enrolled in graduate school, or entered military service. Each graduate averages ten job interviews. Plus You will earn a salary, obtain course credit, and start building a network of professional contacts that often leads to permanent employment upon graduation.
Many companies also hire students during summer vacation.
These programs award academic credit and allow you to make progress toward your degree while you enhance your skills in another cultural setting. Although proficiency in a second language will open more options to you, most of the programs we offer abroad are taught in English. The National Student Exchange allows you to attend another university in the US or its territories while working toward your Tech degree. You may use this option to explore graduate school at another campus, to check out the living environment there, or to set yourself up for employment after graduating from Tech. Whether studying abroad or at another campus in the US, your financial aid will travel with you in most cases.
