Welcome to the Career Center!

Our team provides resources, one-on-one coaching, and access to programs to help students explore career paths, build their networks, and accomplish their goals. No matter what stage you're at in the process, we're here to support you.聽

Our Vision

All Boston College students will be empowered to pursue careers and lives of meaning and purpose.

Our Mission

The Boston College Career Center empowers students from all academic disciplines to incorporate their career goals into a life of meaning and impact. The Center embraces the value of a liberal arts education, which prepares students to discern their gifts and talents and how they want to use them to engage the world, while also providing the skills students need to be career ready. We guide students as they explore their career interests, begin to design lives of purpose, and actively prepare to pursue opportunities that help them achieve their goals. To meet the needs of each student and ensure we are accessible to all, we partner with faculty, staff, employers, alumni, and others to foster a diverse network that will support students at every stage of their career journey. Our aim is to reflect the University's belief that career education and readiness are essential components of our Jesuit mission 鈥渢o learn, to search for the truth, and to live in service to others.鈥澛�
