Wagner's Center for Academic and Career Development is here to help you identify your values, interests, skills, and personality type and develop methods to match what you learn about yourself to potential careers. This process should begin as early as your freshman year and continue even after you graduate.  The more you learn about yourself, the better you will be at finding satisfying  internships and career opportunities.
