Career Service Events
Upcoming Spring Events:
Career Panels
Shepherd University Career Services is proud to be hosting our first set of Career Panels all throughout the Spring Semester for students of all majors and career interests! Each Career Panel is focused on specific career fields and will have 4-6 panelists from these career fields to answer questions about how they broke into the field, their experience working in it so far, and advice on how recent graduates can get their foot in the door. These events are perfect for students looking to explore and expand on their career options upon graduation! Each Career Panel will have some light refreshments and giveaways afterwards. Career Services is proud to partner with the President’s Club to bring these events to our students. Details for individual panels are below. Come out and Get Inspired!
