Faculty/Staff

Supporting Student Career Success Together!

As faculty and staff at Merced College, we recognize the powerful impact you have on shaping the career paths of our students. Your guidance and mentorship not only influence their academic success but also play a crucial role in helping them navigate their professional journeys. We are committed to supporting your efforts in fostering students’ career readiness by offering resources and tools that enhance their skills, provide job market insights, and connect them with meaningful opportunities.

We welcome opportunities to collaborate with you to meet the diverse career development needs of our students. Whether through guest lectures, internships, career workshops, or networking events, your involvement is vital in preparing them for success beyond the classroom. By working together, we can ensure that every student is equipped with the knowledge, confidence, and connections they need to thrive in their chosen fields.
