Welcome to the G. Brint Ryan College of Business Career Community!
We’re l
ocated in one of the fastest-growing metro areas for business in the country, and we build our curriculum with a focus on meeting the needs of the corporate community. Ryan College of Business Professionalism courses will introduce you to career planning and career counselors from the beginning of your academic program. Faculty in your major work closely with the career center to help you find internships and present yourself successfully. Corporate leaders and mid-career professionals speak in your classes, conduct workshops, and serve as mentors.
When you enter the Business Leadership Building on the ground floor, you’ll see the Career Resource Center on your right. This satellite center houses staff offices, interview rooms, a classroom and reference materials. We intentionally chose this location to remind you to focus on your future. Our goal is to connect you to the career you seek, and our partnership with the Career Center helps make that happen.
