Career Resources

The School of Public Health is committed to providing our students and alumni with a host of career counseling and placement services. Many current professional career opportunities are posted on Departmental bulletin boards and updated regularly. In addition, the School has an Assistant Dean for Placements, dedicated to matching individual student interests with hundreds of paid and unpaid public health internships and assistantships that have been identified in the greater Capital District region. For many students, these internships and assistantships lead to career entry immediately upon commencement.

For our current students and alumni, the University maintains a Career Development Center that offers a range of services including career assessment inventories, on-campus recruiting, career fairs, resume and cover letter assistance, summer job information, mock interviews, workshops and specialty programs. In addition, students have the ability to register with a database of employers who are seeking college graduates in various fields.

A link to the services of the Career Development Center is located above. We encourage our students to bookmark the page, research opportunities, and discuss your career plans with your advisor and/or mentor.
