The mission of University Career Services (UCS) is to support the mission of the University and Student Affairs by providing personalized and innovative career education to empower student success and transformation.

Our vision is for all UNC–Chapel Hill students to create lives of purpose and prosperity in alignment with their personal goals. To that end, we partner with various campus stakeholders to provide outreach and equitable access to our services and resources. All of our strategic priorities are aligned with the Division of Student Affairs and Carolina Next which spell out expectations for building community, strengthening student success, enabling career development, and fostering discovery.

USC services for both undergraduate and graduate students include workshops, one-one-one career coaching meetings, full- and part-time job and internship opportunities online (Handshake); major and career assessments; and many print and electronic resources. Our programs include career panels and fairs, industry nights, and pre-graduate and law school exploration programs.

Services are limited to enrolled students in a UNC–Chapel Hill degree program and alumni for six months after graduation. Students in law, dentistry, and medicine and students enrolled in the M.B.A. and M.A.C. programs are served by career services in their departments, rather than by UCS.
