Parents & Families

The USC Career Center, in collaboration with USC’s school-based career services offices, provides students with comprehensive career development support through USC’s federated career services model. This model combines the resources and expertise of the central Career Center with specialized school-based services to offer students access to career advising, industry-specific guidance, internship and job opportunities, employer programs, workshops, mentoring, and networking connections.

Families play an important role in helping students take advantage of these resources and in expanding career opportunities for the Trojan community. By learning about USC’s career resources and encouraging students to engage with them, families can help their students build the skills and experiences needed for career success. Families can also support all USC students by sharing professional connections and recruiting Trojans for internships, jobs, and other meaningful career opportunities.
