University Career Fair – Spring 2026

Dates: Feb. 17 & Feb. 18
Time: 1 to 5 p.m. each day
Location: Atlantic Union Bank Center

This career fair is open to all JMU students across all majors and class years, as over 100 employers from multiple industries are coming to campus to recruit JMU talent from all academic programs for different jobs, internships, and career opportunities.
