Guided by Ignatian principles of self-knowledge and discernment, students will learn how to connect the value of their liberal arts education to their futures. Through self-assessment exercises, lively discussion, and thought-provoking activities, students will identify and reflect upon their values, interests, and skills and then connect them to career options. In addition, students will explore the skills most desired by employers and learn how to develop those competencies during their BC careers. We will also discuss ways to research various career paths and learn targeted search strategies to achieve meaningful profession goals. Using a design thinking framework, students will approach the career exploration process with curiosity and creativity, learn how to identify their unique career interests, take ownership of their career development, and address challenges that often occur in the process. The skills developed will serve students throughout their life by teaching them to focus on possibilities and exploring various career pathways. Students who are considering questions like "what do I want to major in?", "what kind of internship do I want?", or "what sort of career should I pursue?" will all benefit from this course.
