University of Dubuque Office of Vocation, Career Services, and Community Engagement

University of Dubuque - UD to our friends - is a private, coed university founded in 1852. Our 77-acre campus sits near the scenic bluffs along the mighty Mississippi in a dynamic river town that's grown into a center of business and culture. Here, the value of an education is measured in helping our students find their calling in life through academics, community, character, vocation, and stewardship. Our approach to learning is based on professional programs with a liberal arts core, and we prepare students to find their purpose and make meaningful contributions to the world.

The University of Dubuque’s Office of Vocation, Career Services, and Community Engagement is here to help students utilize resources in preparation for their chosen vocation and future endeavors. Students and alumni can access and utilize services. Whether exploring careers, looking for engagement opportunities, applying for an internship, or considering graduate school, we provide support for the education journey. Through consultations, virtual resources, and meaningful community connections, students will feel prepared for their next step – the journey starts today!
