The Career Services Center provides SMC students with a single, conveniently located source for career exploration and guidance services, an Internship Center, employment advisement, and assistance in finding on- and off-campus jobs.
To help you plan your career, we offer a special eight-week class each term, which provides an opportunity for you to explore your interests, identify and clarify your core values, and evaluate your skills (see the listing for “Counseling 12, Career Planning” in this Schedule of Classes). To help you learn how to be successful at work, we also offer an eight-week class that teaches the skills necessary for new employees to survive the initial months on the job, adapt to the company culture, and succeed in remaining employed (see the listing for “Counseling 16, Job Success Skills” in this Schedule of Classes).
The Career Services Center operates SMC’s Internship Program, which helps students find opportunities for internships and cooperative work experience in jobs related to their field of study.
