The NDSU Career and Advising Center offers equal, individualized services to all Graduate Students of North Dakota State University. Because we value these interactions, we often partner and collaborate with the NDSU Graduate School and Graduate Student Council in order to provide a tailored and effective experience for each student. Due to the unique nature of graduate studies, we offer all of our services in a multitude of ways.
Drop-in Model: The Career Studio of the Career and Advising Center, located in Ceres Hall 306, accommodates students through the drop-in model. We know that Graduate Students have many obligations, whether that be research, dissertation, full-time employment, teaching, Graduate Assistantships, etc., which is why drop-ins may be more conducive than scheduling a traditional appointment. A student can drop in for 5 hours, 5 minutes, or quickly over their lunch break which allows Graduate Students to work independently on their documents or seek out assistance if needed.
Email: All services are offered via email. So if students are away from campus, taking classes online, or commuting to NDSU, they may find email interactions to be more useful. Appointments can also be scheduled via email at ndsu.cac@ndsu.edu.
Phone: Whether students have a quick question, would like thorough feedback, or wish to schedule an appointment, calls can be made to the Career and Advising Center main line at 701-231-7111.
Appointment: If you prefer to have a scheduled appointment, we can accommodate this too! Stop by, call, or email at any time to get something scheduled.
