Welcome Parents And Family!
Whenever your student expresses confusion about choosing a major, exploring career options or considering graduate or professional school, we hope you remember the CEC. We appreciate when family members provide the gentle reminder that encourages a student to make a counseling appointment or come browse our library.
The CEC serves all students at UT-Austin, from each of the seventeen colleges and schools on this campus. We serve both undergraduate and graduate students.
We hope the following pages will help you in your efforts to support your student’s decision making.
The Parent/Family Guide addresses myths and realities regarding major, career, and graduate/professional school choices. It includes information on how the CEC can help your student, and suggests ways that parents and family can provide effective support during the exploration process.
The FAQ page answers those questions that parents and families often ask about CEC services.
The Weblinks and Resources page introduces websites and books on how family members can support career development of their students.
