Our mission is to educate students and alumni about career planning, a life-long process of self-evaluation and decision-making.

Career Services fulfills this mission by providing resources to help students manage their own career development. In addition, staff assist students throughout the career development process via workshops, classes, and individual appointments. Fifteen minute walk-in appointments are offered based on counselor availability.  Longer appointments can be scheduled by calling 404.364.8865.

Prospective employers send recruiters each year to conduct on-campus interviews. Current information on permanent, summer, and part-time jobs is available to students and alumni in the Career Library.
