Connecting directly with a College or Academic Department is often a great way to broaden your reach and share your message on campus. Unfortunately, campus is big and finding the right people can be tough. Luckily, EWU publishes an Academic Deans and Chairs contact list each year that serves as a wonderful guiding light. We’ve provided a link to the document below.

If you’re still unsure who to contact or where to start, no worries! While we allow employers and faculty to coordinate classroom presentations or partnerships directly, the Career Center staff are more than happy to help you navigate these waters.
