The Center for Career and Professional Development supports the holistic development of students by guiding them through the career and professional development process in an effort to prepare them for entry into graduate or professional schools, as well as into the global marketplace. Our goal is to assist every student to develop values and establish career and life goals.
Each student beginning in their first year is guided through a four-phase process that takes them from the beginning stages of choosing a major and adjusting to college life to the world of work and life after Dillard.
Awareness
In the first year, students become aware of their values, skills and interests. Tentative career goals and objectives are established.
Exploration
In the second year, students explore their career goals and devise a plan of action to achieve their desired career goals.
Formation
In the third year, students formulate and finalize their career plan through internships, fellowships and other career enhancement opportunities.
Integration
In the forth year, students integrate the three previous phases to obtain their desired goals
