Career Center
Jumpstart your career search – Visit the TU Career Center
It’s never too early for students to start thinking about the future. Our staff can help you identify your interests and find your passion. Take advantage of one-on-one career counseling, self-assessment tests and online resources to discover your career path. Then begin broadening your job-seeking skills. We are committed to your success and will help you master the art of the interview, create an impressive resume, and develop a professional image to give you the competitive edge.
We also work closely to build relationships with employers and help them connect to Towson’s 22,000-plus talented and motivated students. Let us open doors for you and provide opportunities for you to begin building your professional network with employers who regularly visit campus for networking and recruitment events.
