Upcoming Events: Learn about upcoming panels, webinars, and events relevant to you.  These include Career Fair Preparation, U.S. Job and Internship Search Panel, and OPT/CPT Workshops.

Latest News: Hear from industry experts on the latest news related to international students and the job search process.

UConn Organizations:  Connect with students with similar interests. Did you know that UConn has over 15 organizations and centers connecting international cultures?  Consider exploring these organizations in conjunction with the hundreds of clubs and organizations across all interest areas.

Network: UConn’s Husky Mentor Network links undergrad and graduate students with alumni so they can share their knowledge and expertise with you.
