Request a Handshake Acount

Handshake is a platform for students to search for jobs and internships and register for career events. For faculty and staff, you can view Handshake how students see it, allowing you to better support them. 

To get access to Handshake, we will need to send up an account for you. If you are interested in having a Handshake Account, please fill out this form.

3. On the Welcome to Handshake page, click Log In another way (you cannot log in through SSO)
