University of Tampa

The Office of Career Services serves as a bridge between students' college experience and life after UT. Starting the first year at UT and continuing beyond graduation, we are here to help students explore who they are and their career options, connect their experience — whether it is academic, campus involvement and engagement, internships or work experience, to careers or graduate school – and achieve their post-graduation goals.

The Career Services staff wants you to know that we are here for you during this unique and challenging time. The Office of Career Services is happy to help, whether you are looking to EXPLORE careers, searching for your next EXPERIENCE or seeking to ACHIEVE an internship or job. 

Career Exploration is something you can do starting as a first-year student. The process of career exploration connects who you are as a person with meaningful career options that align with your values, interests, personality, skills, strengths and motivations.

You don’t need to figure out the rest of your life today! In fact, most of us figure things out by living and doing. Paying attention to what makes you come alive. Learning with intention. Being curious about yourself and the world around you. Trying things to see if they work. The journey of career exploration can be a well-informed, fun and interesting process in which you are actively engaged starting your freshman year.

Get started on this process now, so when you graduate, you’ll have some solid ideas about who you are, where you’re going and how you’ll get there.
