CAREER RESOURCES MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Office of Career Resources is to provide a comprehensive program of career related resources designed to help Eckerd students and alumni apply their liberal arts education into meaningful employment.   The exploration of personal and professional life goals is an ongoing process that should commence prior to a student's arrival on campus and continue throughout  the duration of his or her academic program.
