The Johns Hopkins Office of Career Planning and Development assists MAPS students with their job search. Career counselors provide individual guidance, training sessions on interviewing, and suggest effective networking and search strategies. The office maintains a resource center with a library, electronic resume service linking students with sponsors and employers, and a job posting program on the Internet. Graduates of the MAPS program find ready employment in the middle to upper levels of government, and in private and nonprofit organizations. Jobs range from program officer for a philanthropic foundation to policy or research analyst at a research institute or government agency, and executive director of a nonprofit organization.
Some graduates continue their study in Ph.D. programs.
