Parents and Family

Throughout your student's years at Missouri State University, they will be engaged in the career development process — whether they think of it that way or not. As a family member, you are an essential part of their network, offering insight, advice, and support during this time of academic and career exploration.

At the Career Center, we are committed to providing students with the resources and information necessary to make informed decisions and achieve individual career development goals. We help students explore majors, fine-tune résumés and letters, identify internships or full-time opportunities, prepare for interviews, and explore graduate programs.

Encourage your student to meet with a member of our staff early in their Missouri State experience.
