want to know the workshop schedule...
Workshop Schedule
All
MSU students are invited to attend all workshops. Due to limited space,
all workshops require that you sign-up ahead of time in Morehead Hall, room
337. Call 973-655-5194 if you have questions.
These workshops
are designed to help you with self-exploration or the job hunt: the more you know
about yourself and your own interests, values and skills, the better your choices
of major and career will be. Cooperative Education workshops are required of those
students wishing to do a co-op experience.
