Services
Mission
The mission of Career Services is to provide career advising and support for GSD students from every discipline that is offered at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. We provide students with resources to explore career options, connections with employment opportunities and advice on every phase of the job search process.
GSD Career Services provides career counseling, career workshops and panels. We coordinate and inform students about internship and job postings, employer visits and interviews. We actively engage faculty, alumni and employers in these events and programs to make meaningful connections with GSD students.
