We are MIT Career Advising and Professional Development (CAPD). Our office is the Institute’s hub to explore and prepare for jobs, internships, fellowships, and medical or graduate school. Our expertise and reach spans industries and disciplines, and stretches across the entire MIT ecosystem, allowing us to connect students and postdocs with a sprawling network of alumni, faculty, and thought leaders. Our advisors understand the career planning process and the uncertainty it can bring. Whether they’re in-person or online, providing one-time support or long-term advising, they’re committed to sharing their expertise, advice, and encouragement.
At CAPD, we support students, postdocs and alumni on a journey of self-discovery, enabling them to build a challenging career and a rewarding life – and empowering them to make a difference in the world. We help MIT students, postdocs, and alumni think strategically about their career goals and trajectory, working with them in four key areas: Career Services, Distinguished Fellowships, Prehealth Advising, and Graduate Student Professional Development.
