Careers
Employers need people with versatility, transferable skills, and the ability to lead, innovate, and teach. Your Notre Dame liberal arts education prepares you to do all that — and more.
To help you land that first job — or an internship that will lead to your first job — Notre Dame has many resources at the ready. All you have to do is seek them out.
“I chose Arts and Letters specifically because you can do anything you want with that degree. The strategies you learn—critical thinking and different ways to look at a problem—are useful no matter where you go.”
— Matt Ardell ’10
