Becker Career Center

General information

At the heart of our mission is helping students pursue their passion. By this we mean going after opportunities that pique their interest and spur their enthusiasm. Individuals who are genuinely interested and engaged in their work will experience increased rewards, both intrinsic and extrinsic. The career center focuses on leveraging students Liberal Arts Education to promote success in their career endeavors.

We teach students how to get thoroughly involved in each stop of the career planning process.

Know Yourself.
Having a strong awareness of their interests, skills, strengths (and weaknesses), talents and values will help students make career decisions consistent with their true passions, thereby increasing the likelihood of success. Knowing how their Liberal Arts education has developed these skills is also an important piece in the know yourself process.

Explore Options.
At this stage, students cast a wide net, really looking at all the different career opportunities that might fit their talents and interests. As such, they’ll be better prepared to assess and make decisions about their future that align with their sense of self.

Decide and Act.
Engaging in internships and jobs will help students further understand their passions.

Sincerely,
Your Union College Becker Career Center Career Assistants :)
