The Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) is here to support you through every step of your career development journey as you pursue your graduate studies at Lehigh University. We seek to empower graduate students to better understand how their specialized skill set can translate into an array of career possibilities both within and outside academia.
We encourage you to invest in your career and professional development during your time at Lehigh and continue to:
-
Seek the discipline-specific guidance of your faculty advisor.
-
Access the extensive services afforded to you by other offices on campus including The Office of Graduate Student Life, The Office of Creative Inquiry, and The Office of International Students and Scholars.
-
Leverage the knowledge of professionals in your chosen field from our vast alumni network and relevant professional associations.
Graduate students have full access to all services and resources provided by CCPD. Please review CCPD’s web pages and view the online platform, Handshake, for more information on coaching appointments, resources, and events available to you. There will also be specialized programming and events throughout the year for graduate students. We encourage you to use these services and resources as a foundation for life-long career development.
