Letter from our Executive Director

We in Career Design and Development take Widener Pride in our approach to providing support that is both individually tailored and consistent with recognized best practices in career development and advisement. Our team of professional counselors, cooperative education advisors, and employer specialists stands ready to assist and support students through such vehicles as:

• one-on-one counseling sessions
• walk-in hours
• skills workshops
• classroom presentations
• employer panels
• general and specialized career fairs

Career Design and Development also administers with pride the University’s acclaimed cooperative education program in partnership with the School of Business Administration, the School of Engineering, and the Department of Computer Science. We invite Widener students and their parents, alumni, faculty and staff, as well as our employer partners to use this website as an extension of these services, a place to find online job and internship postings, useful resources, event updates, and career inspiration 24/7.

We look forward to seeing everyone soon – and often.

Sincerely yours,
Janet R. Long, Ed.D.
Executive Director of Career Design and Development
