(PHASE 1) The Centre for Career and Vocation is seeking student workers to begin the first phase of systematically examining CMU degrees and connecting them to future career pathways. This projects aims to help answer the question "What can I do with this degree?" The overall goal of this project will be the final creation of program specific documents outlining career pathways, resources and action steps to achieving particular career goals through each specific major. As the first phase of this project, this role will be largely research based. As such, this project tasks will primarily include:
- Collect and consolidate all existing resources at CMU that support career paths and degree programs (This will require cross-departmental gathering of information). Synthesize these resources into a coherent document package, and assess what content is coherent and effective, and what gaps currently exist.
- Research career development pathways for all degree programs offered through CMU. What could a student with each major do with their degree upon graduation? What steps are required of them during their undergrad to make those options a reality?
- Beginning with our largest programs, storyboard and create documents that outline various career pathways (as time permits).
Key skills and experiences: ability to synthesize large quantities of information and think creatively about connections, project management and organizational skills, and excellent communication skills with visual acumen
This position will report to the Director of the Centre for Career and Vocation as well as the Practicum Coordinator via email and Teams.
