Center for Student Professional Development
Our Mission:
The Center for Student Professional Development (CSPD) is a comprehensive College
of Business resource focused on supporting students’ successful matriculation through
college and preparing them for entry into the professional business environment. This
is accomplished through various career preparation workshops, networking sessions,
mentoring and experiential opportunities, such as internships, that complement the
content knowledge and tools taught in the classroom and help students develop a professional
portfolio of skills and behavioral attributes that are sought by employers.
Our Goals:
- To ensure that students matriculating through the challenging College of Business
curricula and programs develop a balanced portfolio of skills - academic, communications,
technical, interpersonal, career readiness, critical thinking and leadership.
- To encourage students to continuously enhance their skills, business sophistication
and other behavioral competencies during and after their college matriculation.
- To assist students in defining and managing their personal/professional brand.
- To cultivate relationships with alumni and industry resulting in mentoring opportunities
for students and, in collaboration with Career Services, provide internship and full-time
career opportunities for students.
