Career Hero
A Brandeis Career Hero is a faculty or staff member selected by students who made a significant contribution to students' professional or career objectives.
The Hiatt Career Center helps students build their future and faculty partnerships are essential to this work. Networking with Brandeis faculty and staff is one of the most utilized and helpful approaches for Brandeis students searching for internships and jobs. Connect with staff and faculty to learn more about career fields, graduate studies and professional opportunities!

In our fourth year of sharing these awards, we have noticed the ongoing dedication of faculty and staff and the meaningful, lasting impact they have on students’ career and professional journeys.
Just for Students
Connect with Faculty and Staff
Most faculty and staff hold office hours. These are set times when students can stop by without an appointment. Faculty office hours are often listed on course sites, department websites, or in professors’ email signatures. You can also email a faculty or staff member to confirm their availability or to schedule a meeting outside of office hours if needed.
