ASYNCHRONOUS ASSIGNMENT OPTION FOR US 1100 PATHWAYS – Complete prior to “event” deadline for credit  

 

In Canvas, join the Career Success Toolkit site maintained by Career Services. Complete the “Job/Internship Search” module in the Career Success Toolkit to build early career readiness skills.

 

You'll complete two assignments: 


  • Research whether your major requires an internship/co‑op and explore credit options 

  • Browse Handshake to find three jobs of interest and identify an upcoming career fair to attend 

 

 

Your work will be graded on completion and effort, and you’ll receive feedback after submission. If submitting earlier in this "event" timeframe, you will be in Round 1 of grading. Late October-early November, you will be entered into Round 2 of grading. 

 

 

If you have any questions, please contact Madyson Flint, Career Exploration Coordinator for Career Services and US 1100 instructor, at MLS332@txstate.edu. Be sure to leave enough time for a response (typically 2 business days).
