We are here to help you prepare for and evaluate your career options, look for (or fund) an internship, find post-graduate jobs, think about graduate school, or to discuss your major. We provide personal attention through individual coaching, and we provide a wealth of online resources and events.

We actively support all students and recent graduates as they seek rewarding, meaningful, and purposeful work. Please let us know if there are additional ways we can provide support by writing careers@sewanee.edu. 

Individual Coaching

The Career Center staff thrives on connection with and support for students, and we intend to provide virtual support for the 2020-2021 academic year. 

Students will continue to initiate virtual individual meetings with Career Center staff members via Handshake (desktop or app). Appointments are conducted by Zoom (or Google Video Chat/Hangout, if needed). When creating appointments, select which communication method you prefer. When scheduling your appointment, please select "video call" (preferred) or "phone call.”

Internships
Insights, Experience, New Skills

Sewanee considers internships and research fellowships are a valuable and integral part of a field of study, an important way to get insights into a career field, obtain valuable professional experience, and develop new skills. To facilitate this, Sewanee offers funding to our students to provide stipends for unpaid internships and research fellowships. Why do an ordinary summer job when you can do a meaningful internship in your field of interest?
