CLD 340: Exploring a Career Abroad (Winter Quarter)
Opportunities for working, studying, and/or volunteering abroad post-graduation are plentiful, but you need to know where to look. Before embarking on any search, you need to explore more about yourself and potential career paths. In this course, you will analyze your strengths, values, and interests as you explore career options and paths to work, study, or volunteer abroad. You will learn about London as a global city and connect with DePaul alumni living overseas, learning from their experiences.
CLD 345: Designing a Career Abroad (Spring Quarter)
Upon returning from a week in London, you will continue reflecting on your experience and sharing insights with your peers as you begin considering future work/study/volunteer opportunities abroad. While there are a wide range of international opportunities available to you, securing a position with an employer, university, or volunteer organization is not only competitive but also requires careful reflection, research, and planning. This course will help give you the knowledge and skills needed to create a personal career toolkit that you can use to apply for future opportunities. Building on what you learned in CLD 340 and your week in London, you will also develop a customized search strategy for working, studying, or volunteering abroad, taking into account country-specific rules, regulations, and trends.
