As part of its continuing effort to maintain quality academic programs and to provide strong support services, New Mexico State University routinely conducts outcomes assessment activities. The data resulting from these assessments will be published only in aggregate form. Staff members work closely with deans, department heads, faculty, and employers to assist students and alumni in developing suitable career opportunities based on their education, experiences, and interests. Additionally, Placement and Career Services arranges interviews between prospective employers and graduating students and alumni. Current information on employment trends and a comprehensive library of career literature help students make informed decisions.
Many jobs are preprofessional in nature and offer academically related experience.
During the summer months and throughout the academic year, interns may arrange for academic credit for internships. Students with sensory, mobility, learning, or other recognized impairments are encouraged to apply for services through this office. Among services available are note taking, test accommodations, priority registration, interpreters, and others. Students are encouraged to request services well in advance of the start of school to allow adequate time to make the needed arrangements. The university is committed to ensuring that the campus is accessible to all individuals.
