The Tufts Career Center

Your first year is a unique time for growth, exploration, and more. The Tufts Career Center offers extensive resources for exploring career options and developing strategies for pursuing your goals. These include career education programs, Career Fellows (undergraduate peer advisors) to introduce you to the Career Center, individual career advising appointments, and comprehensive tools designed to help you assess your skills, interests, values, competencies and experiences. You'll hear more from our team this fall, but in the meantime, visit the following link for answers to three questions:
