University Career Services

Welcome to University Career Services!  We are your full service career center – serving:

  • all Georgia State University students and alumni spanning all majors and all colleges

  • all employers seeking candidates from across the campus

  • all professional and graduate school recruiters seeking Georgia State University (GSU) applicants 

University Career Services (UCS) is a comprehensive career center dedicated to the success of all Georgia State University students.   We do not work in isolation – we work with faculty, academic advisors, and other career professionals across the campus so as to maximize your success – as a student or as an employer.  Our campus career partners include the Robinson College of Business Career Management Center and the College of Law Career Services.

What does UCS do?

Four basic things:

  • We help students and alumni explore academic majors, find internships and jobs, launch careers, explore graduate and professional school options, and pursue their professional goals.
  • We help employment recruiters, from big corporations to small agencies, discover, recruit, and hire Georgia State University students and alumni.  We are like an extension of a recruiting organization’s HR wing, seeking collegiate talent.  We help with both internship hiring and entry-level career position hiring.
  • We manage Panther Career Net, GSU’s online 24/7 job board for students, alumni, and employers (with over 22,000 GSU students registered).  There is no student or employer fee to use Panther Career Net.
  • We help professional and graduate school recruiters connect with students and alumni seeking advanced educational opportunities - locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. 

In a sense, we are the middle ground – helping students and alumni connect with their future opportunities assisting employers in acquiring new talent for their organizations, and aiding graduate and professional schools in recruiting applicants. 

We offer many services and events for students, alumni, employers, and grad school recruiters, including referrals across the campus.  To check out our student, alumni, and recruiter services, click on the links to the left.

On behalf of the UCS team, we wish you great success here at Georgia State University - including your career success!

Best wishes,
Kevin Gaw, PhD
Director of University Career Services
