Faculty & Staff
The mutual goal of the Career Development Center (CDC) and the AUM faculty is student success. By working together, we can ensure a students' transition to a member of the work force is as seamless as possible.
Think of the path our students take to their professional career as a camping trip. Our faculty does an outstanding job of "filling the students' backpacks" with the knowledge and practical skills they need to thrive once they reach their destination. At the CDC, we provide the maps and compasses, and serve as guides for students.
Please assist us by informing students of the important activities offered by the AUM Career Development Center and by encouraging their participation in our programs.
Feel free to use us as a resource, and let us know how we can be of service to you. The CDC staff is available upon request for presentations in your classroom, campus organization, or activity
