Career Studio
Give your experience a form another person can understand.
Begin with the work you have done
A project, a part-time role or a course can reveal an interest before a career title does. Career Studio helps you identify the methods you used, the decisions you made and the kind of work you would like to do more of.
Alex Ortiz directs the studio in The Commons, Room 204. Tuesday and Thursday drop-in conversations run 2–4 p.m.; longer appointments make room for a focused review.
Choose a conversation
| Appointment | Length | Bring |
|---|---|---|
| Exploring a direction | 30 minutes | A few interests and a recent project |
| Resume or portfolio review | 30 minutes | A working draft and a target audience |
| Practice project conversation | 45 minutes | A project you can explain with examples |
Prepare a useful account
- Describe the question or task.
- Identify your role rather than only the group result.
- Show a method, a revision or a decision.
- Explain what you learned and what you would change.
Experiential learning
Discuss an opportunity with your academic adviser before assuming it will carry credit. Academic approval, supervision, learning goals and a record of work are separate from obtaining a placement. Career Studio supports preparation and does not guarantee employment.
