November 2018
MSW Career Corner
Happy November! In an effort to keep you informed about career development opportunities at SSW, we will be sending you a monthly Career Corner email with information on upcoming events and things to be keeping in mind. You can always find a comprehensive list of offerings and general information here: https://www.ssw.umaryland.edu/student-services/career-development--licensing-information/ . Remember that most career related events, particularly related to licensing, are geared toward graduating students and usually scheduled on Mondays during the lunch break. These events occur annually, so foundation students will definitely have access during your advanced year (most events are also recorded).


Wishing you a strong rest of your semester,
