Career Focus |
Nichols Professional Development Seminar (PDS) Program, the first of its kind in the
United States, is a four-year program of 1-credit courses. Coursework logically builds on
the prior year, with first-year students getting help with the transition to college; secondyear
students exploring majors and internship opportunities; third-year students refining their
professional skills (e.g., interviewing, writing resumes and developing portfolios); and
fourth-year students launching successful careers.
|
|
Internship Opportunities |
Internships provide an opportunity for students to explore a specific career, gain real-life
work experience, and develop a network of contacts. Often internship experiences lead to
full-time employment upon graduation.
