Purpose
The Center for Career Services empowers students to confidently navigate their career
journey by leveraging monumental proximity to hands-on experience, industry exposure,
and employer connections. We support students at every stage of career development —
from exploring interests and gaining real-world experience to building a strong professional
network and launching impactful careers. Through personalized coaching, professional
development workshops, industry panels, career fairs, and networking events, we help
students connect their purpose to their career path, equipping them to make a meaningful
difference on a global scale.
