Careers, student jobs focus of Parent Workshop April 1
Tuesday, March 17th, 2009
No fooling, the UNM Parent Connection Workshop Wednesday, April 1, is focused on getting your student a job and on the path to a meaningful career.
Students will get ahead of the Lobo pack by gaining professional experience during the college years. UNM Career Services expert Marty Apodaca will talk to families about ways students can explore interests that may lead to a college major. He will also discuss how to find summer internships, co‐ops, and employment opportunities, and how to land a “real” job after graduation.
Participants will also take a short tour of the UNM Career Services Office, which is open to students, alumni and the community year‐round.
UNM’s parent workshops are held the first Wednesday of each month in the Student Services Center, Dean of Students Conference Room, 2nd floor. From the Cornell Parking Structure (parking is $1.75 per hour), go north on Cornell Mall. Pass by Popejoy Hall and the Student Union (SUB). When you reach the north end of the SUB to east to the Student Services Center, located behind Mesa Vista Hall.
Check‐in begins at 5:30 p.m. Parent Association members are on hand to visit with you about their experiences.
The series is sponsored by UNM’s Dean of Students’ Family Connection Program, Parent Relations Office and Parent Association.
