Career Services Center (CSC @ NSC)
Opening in August 2013, the Nevada State College Career Services Center will serve as a campus career hub, providing students and alumni the skills they need to identify career goals and interact with a lifetime of professional career movement and job decisions.
The CSC @ NSC will encourage student participation from the first year through graduation, and will partner with the Academic Advising Center, faculty mentors, and the Student Academic Center in order to create an integrated and complete career services experience.
Once students graduate and become alumni, they can continue to utilize services in the CSC @ NSC. And through a partnership with the NSC Alumni Association, alumni will be encouraged to become career mentors and industry professionals at career-focused workshops and events. Alumni who perform recruiting for their employer can also connect with the Center.
Finally, the Career Services Center will perform outreach to the community and will encourage employers to connect with the campus via internship and job opportunities, company information sessions, and as experts at professional development workshops and events for our students and alumni.
The goal is to provide a one-stop shop and the CSC @ NSC services and programming will include:
- Career skills and interests testing
