Placement Services

HUC does not offer direct job placement services for students. As a graduate institution, HUC’s student body is largely comprised of adult learners, and several of HUC’s programs are designed for students who are already employed in their field. For HUC’s seminary programs, placement is facilitated through HUC’s association with two, religious non-profit organizations: the Central Conference of American Rabbis assists with the placement of HUC’s rabbinical students, and the American Conference of Cantors assists with the placement of HUC’s cantorial students.

HUC also offers a Student Job Board on the HUC website For Students page. This job board is designed to connect students to career opportunities that are directly tied to the degree programs offered at HUC.
