The Lundquist College of Business adopts a highly collaborative and student-centered approach to supporting student career success through career exploration, job search strategy, professional skills development, and portfolio-building.
Nearly 100 percent of our domestic graduates and 70 percent of international graduates are typically placed by commencement in international, regional, and local accounting firms, as well private companies and government agencies.
The Lundquist College has its own in-house career services team, Mohr Career Services. Located prominently on the first floor of the Lillis Business Complex, Mohr Career Services offers career advising, workshops, connections, and more to all Lundquist College students.
MAcc students are required to begin to work with the career services team during the summer before the program begins to refine resumes and prepare for interviews which typically begin shortly after classes start.
