Available for second- through fourth-year students.
The Strong Interest Inventory applies your Holland code – a tried and true psychological assessment – to careers and industries that would be a good fit for you. It measures interests, not skills or abilities, and compares your likes and dislikes to the likes and dislikes of successful professionals in various fields. The Strong Interest Inventory in particular is most beneficial after a student has completed their first year, as they will have experienced a variety of course subjects and had the opportunity to engage with events, resources and tools.

Available for first- through fourth-year students.
Students who complete the CliftonStrengths for Students assessment receive a customized report that lists their top five talent themes, along with action items for development and suggestions about how to use the talents to achieve academic, career, and personal success.
