Career Services

Personalized guidance for every step of your college journey.

We'll help you explore degree programs and jobs that fit your goals and interests. We'll help build your professional skills and networks, so you're preparing for the workplace as you learn in the classroom. We'll give you plenty of support when it's time to search for a job, too.

We also know the power of connection. In addition to connecting you to internships, jobs and graduate schools, we partner with employers from all industries and NIU faculty and staff to give you the most effective career preparation possible.
