Career and Graduate School Network

Looking for new job leads?   
Need information about a particular occupation or career field?  
Would you like to learn about a particular graduate program at a specific institution?   

If so, the National Office has an exciting opportunity to help Mortar Board members find more information and contacts within various career fields. 

The Mortar Board Career and Graduate School Network was established to assist Mortar Board members and alumni who would like to gather information about prospective career fields from other Mortar Board members in the workforce. 

This is not a job placement service, but an opportunity to network with Mortar Board members and make contact with people in the work environments of interest. 

The Career Network is a national information database located at the Mortar Board National Office and is organized by type of employer and type of position.  It also contains graduate school contacts if you are interested in talking to Mortar Board alumni who are knowledgeable about various graduate programs.   

To use the database, select the code for your desired type of position and/or type of employer from the lists below and then call 1-800-989-6266 or e-mail the National Office at mortarboard@mortarboard.org with your codes and the geographical region in which you are interested, and we will supply you with corresponding contact names and numbers, if available.  It is that simple!
