The External Affairs Department, by virtue of its relationships with the external public, identifies career opportunities for AUD students and remains abreast of the human resource needs and desires of prospective employers. The Career Services Division of External Affairs manages the student’s job-seeking process.

AUD offers full-time Career Services that provide degree seeking AUD students and AUD alumni the opportunity to receive individualized career guidance career research assistance. The Career Services Office also provides assistance throughout all stages of students’ career development. A wide spectrum of individualized services is provided, including resumé and cover letter writing, interview techniques, job search strategies, salary negotiation advice, aptitude and skill assessment, and general career advice.

The Career Services Manager liaises with local and multinational companies, creating a business network to offer employment and internship opportunities to AUD students and alumni. With the increasing competition of today’s global marketplace, students need every competitive advantage available; consequently, AUD encourages students to complement their academics with solid work experience, ensuring that upon graduation they will meet the high expectations of the marketplace.

Early exposure to the work environment will solidify students’ academic commitment, and allow a better understanding of the relationship between the classroom and the marketplace.

Entering students should visit the Career Services Office during their first academic year and work with the Career Services Manager to begin to develop their career strategies in parallel with their academics.
