These are the people who care about your future! We look a little different now, but our inner child reminds us of who we are, how we’ve grown, and how our experiences shaped us to be helpers, planners, and leaders in the Career Center 💖💼.

Throwback Thursday! This summer, we are reflecting on the success of our programs and students from this past semester.

In April, a group of students from Dr. Aaron King's Political Science 405 course and Janeé Folston, the Career Center's Associate Director for Employer Development, took a trip to Washington D.C. in collaboration with the Career Center as a part of the Washington D. Seahawks: Experiential Learning in DC program. Students got the chance to meet employers, legislatures, and UNCW Alumni to learn about career and internship opportunities in the DC area.

A special thanks to Charles-Anthony Ozuna from the Career Center for documenting the trip 📸

A big part of our job at the Career Center is to help others reach their full potential. We help students soar to their professional aspirations through goal setting, skill building, and fostering growth. It is no surprise then that as an ambitious bunch, we strive for that in ourselves. While it’s hard to say goodbye to our fearless leader for the last 7 years, we are so proud of Nadirah for all she has accomplished here at UNCW, and look forward to watching her continue to soar in her own career path. Best wishes, Nadirah! Thank you for everything.

Today’s the day! The UNCW Career Center is excited to host the Film Symposium in collaboration with UNCW Film Studies Department and University Advancement Thursday, April 3, from 3-7pm in the Burney Center.

This highly anticipated event will bring together distinguished alumni and industry professionals for an afternoon of insightful discussions, networking, and innovative film showcases.

The Symposium will feature a “Works in Progress” session, where alumni panelists will share their expertise and experiences in filmmaking. Among the esteemed speakers is Dylan Bradshaw, winner of the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl contest, whose commercial Abduction recently aired during Super Bowl LIX, reaching over 100 million viewers. Other notable alumni panelists include Ricki Nelson, Alexis Dickerson, and Taylor Montalto, alongside an industry panel featuring Honey Head Films.

Additionally, SISU Cinema Robotics will provide a live demonstration of their cutting-edge film technology, Cucalorus Film Festival has contributed to the event, and Cinespace Studios is the top-tier sponsor.

With a keynote address by award-winning filmmaker Dr. Richard Wiebe, this event offers students an unparalleled opportunity to learn, connect, and explore careers in the film industry.

Following the Symposium, attendees are invited to Flix & Flights, an exclusive alumni and graduate student mixer at Flying Machine Brewery, providing a relaxed setting for continued networking and collaboration.
