Career Exploration

The Whitman Career Center creates signature programming for students that gives them opportunities to explore career paths and industries so that they can make informed decisions when determining their majors and minors. These explorative opportunities also allow students to delineate a path that can help them attain their career aspirations.

Exploration-focused educational opportunities are perfect for first-year and sophomore students. Exploration trips are currently limited to 20 students per trip and involve an application process for selection.

Current Exploration Opportunities Include:

Career Exploration Trips are offered multiple times during the year, historically in January, March, and May. 

Each trip is unique with company visits and events, many times including networking events, panels or a meal with alumni, and most trips visit anywhere from 5-10 companies in the 3-5 day trip.  Some of the locations the career exploration trips have gone/will be going to include New York City, Boston, and Los Angeles/San Francisco.
