The Office of Career Services of The University of the South exists to further the University's aim of providing a liberal arts education that will develop the whole person. The Office of Career Services encourages students to take responsibility for career-related choices and to understand that career planning and development occur not only during their undergraduate years, but also throughout a lifetime. Our goal is to teach students to use self exploration, career exploration and targeted job searches -- tools that can be used long after they leave the mountain.
The Office of Career Services seeks to help all who come to the University to develop accurate perceptions of themselves in the context of their career choices, to establish career-related goals, and to gain valuable experiences to reach their goals. To accomplish its purpose, the Office of Career Services provides opportunities and resources to assist in identifying interests and values; evaluating experiences; exploring graduate school opportunities; researching careers; locating and securing internships and other significant, short-term work experiences; conducting job searches; writing resumes and business correspondence; and developing interviewing skills.
