BYU colleges host Career Exploration Expo Sept. 22

The College of Family, Home and Social Sciences in conjunction with the College of Humanities and the Kennedy Center for International Studies will host the Career Exploration Expo for students in the Liberal Arts and Social Sciences Wednesday, Sept. 22, from 4-6 p.m. in 3228 Wilkinson Student Center.

Representatives in the career areas of business, government service, research and consulting, human resources/project management, international development, museums, government intelligence, social services and editing/writing/publishing will be present to answer questions and provide information.

Shane Jorgenson, assistant director of the College of Family, Home and Social Sciences Advisement Center, says the expo differs from career fairs with recruiters who come seeking to fill positions.

"This is an opportunity for students to explore the possible career areas that are not necessarily attached to their majors and to find out what it takes to enter those career areas."

For information or questions, contact Shane Jorgenson at (801) 422-3542, shanej@byu.edu.
