Welcome Marquette Parents

If you are viewing this webpage you must have a son or daughter in college and engaged in the career development process!  The entire Marquette University Career Services Center (MUCSC) staff is available to provide comprehensive career education and employment services for students in all majors, all years, and pursuing all career paths.

The MUCSC subscribes to the idea that all students fit into one of the following five itineraries or paths to career success:

1. Clarifying Career Goals
2. Gaining career-related skills through an Internship
3. Selecting and applying to Graduate/Professional School
4. Pursuing Post-Graduate Volunteer Service
5. Seeking a First Job

Students are not required to engage in any activities offered by the Career Services Center.  However, each year students take the initiative and attend presentations, schedule individual career counseling appointments, send in resumes for critiquing, and access resources to assist them in achieving their career goals.  Please help us help your son or daughter by encouraging them to access resources and services tailored to them. 

We have created Career Development: A parent’s guide to helping sons and daughters for parents to assist us! 

If you have any feedback or questions, please contact me.  I look forward to serving your college student!
