Career
Center and Career Resources Annex
Career
Center
The College of Arts and Humanities offers some advising programs
which focus on career planning and decision making. However,
students are encouraged to supplement college and departmental
advising by utilizing the career development services available
in the Career
Center. The Center offers career development services,
career counseling, workshops, courses, special programs, a Career
& Employment Resource Room, an extensive web site (http://www.careercenter.umd.edu),
and a Credentials File Service in support of graduate school and
employment applications. The Center also assists students
with locating part-time, internship, cooperative education, graduate
assistantships, and full-time employment opportunities through
job and career fairs, on-campus interviewing, resume referral,
and job listings. Direct access to these employment services
are available through TERP Online, the Employment Registration
Program. Students may obtain a TERP account by attending
a required Career Center TERP Online workshop and having a one-time
$20 fee charged to their account.
