Multicultural Professional Day

"The Start Up of You in Your Career"

Multicultural Professional Day is a mini-conference designed to prepare multicultural students for their career field. Its goal is to ensure that multicultural students are given the guidance, preparation, and opportunities to fully meet their career potential. Topics include how to write your resume & cover letter, interviewing do's & don'ts, transitional life topics, diversity in the workforce, and many more!

Join us for our annual MPD Career Program to help you answer your questions on how to jump start your career!
