Edgewood College Career Development

Career Development at Edgewood College empowers students to apply their education toward achieving their career goals and living a meaningful personal and professional life by:

  • recognizing career development as a process and exploring paths that align with the student's values, interests and personality
  • being open to career development opportunities in order to clarify a chosen career path
  • consistently planning and taking action in pursuit of career development goals
  • fully understanding their current path and finding value in lifelong career development

In addition to our work with students, career development builds and maintains relationships with faculty, staff, community partners, and alumni to build a more just and compassionate world.
