Q: What is the difference between MiTRAC and campus recruiting?
A: MiTRAC is a web-based database that allows students to access information about recruiting and calendar activities. All SMG students have access to these resources. Campus recruiting is a program managed by the Feld Career Center. The recruiting team works with companies to establish relationships and bring recruiters on campus. Students post their resumés to specific job listings (campus recruiting).
Q: I want to apply for an internship on MiTRAC. What are the requirements?

A: Yes. If you've forgotten your password, contact the Feld Career Center at 617-353-2834 or careers@bu.edu or simply stop in to retrieve the information.
Q: How is MiTRAC different from and more targeted than monster.com?
