About Fordham Career Center The formative experiences you will have at Fordham, from study abroad to service opportunities to simply being challenged and inspired by your professors and fellow students, will change you in ways that may feel hard to put into words.

That’s where the Career Center comes in. We serve as the bridge between your classroom experience and the world beyond, helping you to understand the extraordinary value and relevance of your Fordham education—and ensuring employers do, too.

Whether we’re helping you edit your resume, find an internship, network with employers, or learn about new developments in our rapidly-changing economy, everything we do is based on Cura Personalis - the care of the whole student.

Fordham Office of Military & Veterans’ Services Mission Statement Our main goal is to ease the military transition to civilian life, into higher education, and finally to professional careers.

Thesis The military-to-civilian transition is too great a task for a single DoD transition program. With support services siloed, veterans need a coordinated effort to support military-connected students navigating from service to the classroom to career.

Therefore, Fordham University employs a whole-of-community approach to tailor services to the unique needs of militaryconnected students at every phase in the military-to-civilian transition to fulfill its mission.
