Major and Career Planning

The Michelin Career Center has a staff of professional counselors and advanced counseling graduate students to help you in your major and career decision-making. If you are trying to decide on a major, choosing a career, or making other career-related decisions, you may want to speak with a career counselor.

Counselors are available throughout the week to help you. During a counseling session, the counselor and student may decide that a standardized vocational assessment such as DISCOVER may be helpful and a follow-up appointment will be scheduled with the student to review the results.
