Miami International University of Art & Design maintains a comprehensive Career Services Department dedicated to helping students find work while in school, and after graduation. Although the school can offer no guarantee of employment, we strive to cultivate employment opportunities and to match job leads with qualified students. Students can get advice and assistance with their résumé, job search, portfolio presentation and interview techniques.

Students seeking employment while in school are encouraged to work with our Student Employment Advisor. Together, you'll explore part-time or full-time job leads that are both general and field-related. Also, get information about internships and what it takes to qualify for work-study opportunities. For students interested in field-related work while in school, we also maintain job boards located in the Student Union that are targeted to specific programs.  A Job Fair is held in the main hallway (next to the Student Union) quarterly representing both miscellaneous and field-related jobs.

Prior to graduation, you are encouraged to work with a Career Services Advisor specific to your field of study. Career Services advisors not only provide job leads compatible with your skills and experience, they can offer an overview of the employment market—along with individualized help in resumé enhancement, job-search techniques, interviewing skills and portfolio presentation. Advisors also work to increase industry awareness of Miami International University of Art & Design and its students. Professionals from the design and business community are invited to speak at the school, and potential employers are encouraged to visit every quarterly Portfolio Review.

Local, regional and nationally-recognized companies often utilize Career Services to recruit our qualified grads. The teamwork between Career Services staff members and the graduate's active role in the job-search process helps graduates of Miami International University of Art & Design find entry-level positions in their field.
