Welcome WashU Faculty & Staff

By engaging and collaborating closely with you as faculty and staff, the Center for Career Engagement (CCE) strives to grow and strengthen a robust WashU support network that truly meets students where they are for conversations about career – whether in the classroom, in residence halls, or elsewhere across campus.

Our Goal: A Collaborative Approach to Student Career Support

The Academic & Campus Partnerships team seeks to provide information and resources that increase the level of comfort and confidence of faculty and staff to have important career conversations, suggest relevant resources, or make referrals for career coaching. This team serves as a first point of contact for WashU faculty and staff who have questions about what the CCE offers or who are looking to partner with the CCE to integrate career related content or workshops into their classroom or campus programming.
