Our programs are designed, not only to help you develop your
creativity, but to make you marketable to employers after graduation.
Academic departments host guest speakers, supervise classes,
and keep you informed of opportunities to work with professionals
in the industry. Career Services will encourage you to enter
work in competitions, volunteer time on extra-curricular projects
related to your field of study, and attend seminars and workshops
to network and learn.
You will receive assistance with career planning as you enter
Miami International University of Art & Design, complete your program, and
graduate. Our department is designed to encourage a successful
entry into your chosen field by providing assistance and career
advising to
you. A major function of Career Services is to help you secure
part-time employment while you attend school. During upper-division
quarters, emphasis is placed on gaining field-related part-time
jobs and securing freelance work in relevant areas of study.
Research is conducted, on a regular basis, by our Career Services
Advisors to gain knowledge in all areas of business relating
to the different programs. Our advisors respond to employer
needs and trends and give guidance to students on what is taking
place in the industry relating to their courses of study.
At the end of each quarter, Miami International University of Art & Design
sponsors a Portfolio Review for graduating students. Employers
are invited to review portfolios and interview graduates. Graduating
students have the opportunity to meet and interview with prospective
local and national employers both on and off campus.
From helping you obtain part-time work while attending school,
to actively supporting your professional job search prior to
graduation, our faculty and staff are committed to ensuring
that you receive the individual support required to develop
a portfolio and résumé highlighting your abilities
for employment. You will also participate in career placement
coursework designed to teach you how to network with professional
contacts, effectively market your skills, and negotiate starting
salaries with potential employers.
