Center for Academic & Career Engagement The newly created Center for Academic and Career Engagement (CACE) supports students from their transition to Wagner and throughout the college experience as they select a major, consider study abroad options, gain internship experience, and develop leadership skills, and assists in the application of these skills to a process of lifelong career development. Students find their own answers to the question, “What’s your Wagner plan?” as they follow a 4-step process of self-inquiry, major and career exploration, reflection and decision making, and strategic action – either a job search or graduate school pursuit. The proactive and integrated services offered to all students include academic advising and support, tutoring, services for students with disabilities, major exploration, personal and career assessments, career counseling, resume and cover letter preparation, interview preparation, evaluation of employment objectives, and assistance in planning internship and job search strategies. Students who utilize the Center can connect to career and graduate school resources including job and internship listings, employer literature, a mentorship program with Wagner alums, and networking and skill-building workshops offered on a regular basis to support students as they explore various career paths. The Center adds value to the students' educational experiences by assuring that the resources of the College are available to our diverse population of students as they prepare for the world of work.
