While we believe your focus as a student must be on the development of your ideas, opinions and skills, it is certainly understandable to want some sense at this moment of where your significant effort and investment might lead you after graduation and how RISD will help you as you progress toward your first post-student opportunities.

RISD’s Career Services Office providers resources and education in practical skills for professional and creative artists and designers. The office conducts individual and class counseling sessions, on- and off-campus and e-mail appointments, and annually hosts more than 150 programs, seminars, conferences and other events.

ArtWorks is a searchable database designed to help RISD students and alumni locate jobs, internships, residencies and other available opportunities. You might find it of interest to browse through Artworks, to get a sense of some of the employment opportunities available to RISD students and alumni.
