Professional Development Series (PDS)
The Professional Development Series (PDS) at the School of Engineering & Computing is a comprehensive program designed to supplement the academic development of our students through a sequence of professional development events, workshops, and panels offered by the School of Engineering in partnership with the Academic Career and Development Center.
This program will provide School of Engineering & Computing (SEC) students with a structured way in which they can obtain the necessary knowledge and skills that will help them reach their career goals and succeed in a challenging job market. The program is optional, but highly encouraged for all SEC students.
PDS is structured in four different levels that coincide with a student’s four years at Fairfield University. The objectives are meant to build upon one another, but do not necessarily have to be done in consecutive order. Students may opt to start or progress in the program at a speed that is comfortable for them.
