Career Resources

Current students are urged to consult with Furman’s Malone Center for Career Engagement.  This office offers workshops on various aspects of career planning and serves as the liaison for recruiters from business and industry.  The office also houses an extensive database for job exploration and alumni connections.  It is never too early to begin exploring your options and developing relevant skills!

Another way to learn more about career options is to attend the Professional Development Workshops that are offered during the fall and spring terms. There are sessions on Careers in Psychology, Mental Health Careers, an Alumni Panel, and a How to Find a Job Workshop. In addition, internships offer you the opportunity to explore career interests through hands-on experience with professionals in the community.

Graduate School Resources

The Graduate School Info session is held each fall as part of the Psychology Professional Development Series and covers essential information for students who want to know about any aspect of graduate school in psychology and the process of applying for admission.

We also highly recommend participating in research and internship opportunities which can help to clarify your career goals and provide valuable experience that will prepare you for graduate work. For resources on applying to Graduate School in Psychology, see the Psychology Department Moodle page.
