Career Engagement
Washburn Tech strives to assist all qualified students and graduates to secure employment in their field of study. (Employment is not guaranteed). Instructors, who maintain a close relationship with business and industry through their program advisory committees and business contacts, provide placement assistance to students completing their program.
Washburn’s Student Life and Career Engagement staff facilitate workshops that prepare students for employment. Workshop topics include, but are not limited to job search techniques, resume writing, and interview preparation. Each semester, Washburn Tech hosts a Career Fair to introduce students to employment opportunities. In addition, employers inform Washburn of job openings on a regular basis. This information is shared with students a number of ways:
- Posted on Handshake (https://washburn.joinhandshake.com/login)
- Distributed to related program instructors to share with students.
- Sent electronically to students.
