Student Career Services

Upon entering the department each student is assigned a department advisor who helps them to choose courses providing a logical sequence of studies that fulfill requirements.

Our current students, graduates and alumni all receive career guidance from the NCSU Career Center. This center provides a full-range of services from mock interviews to resume writing and posting. There are career fairs and job seminars to attend. Current students can explore co-op, internships and pre- professional opportunities. Internships and co-op experiences are also available through the department. Please see Bio&Ag Internships.

The department is affiliated with two colleges so students have the opportunity to be involved in career resources offered by both colleges in addition to the University services.
