Career Liaisons
Ferguson College of Agriculture Career Liaisons develop partnerships to promote self-driven, student career development among stakeholders of the college. The Career Liaisons support the professional success of all Ferguson College of Agriculture students by increasing awareness of and participation in career development activities and by improving the effectiveness with which career-related information is disseminated to students, faculty, and staff within our college.
The Career Liaisons volunteer for service hours in the Student Success Center each week to help students with their career-related questions and needs on a walk-in basis. Additionally, the Career Liaisons serve an integral role in the development, planning and production of Ferguson College of Agriculture Career Services activities and host employers who are visiting campus to recruit our students for their career opportunities.
