Career Opportunities for Students

UNM Handshake

All UNM students and alumni have access to Handshake, a national jobs portal. More information is here: https://career.unm.edu/jobs-internships/Handshake_jobs/what-is-handshake.html. UNM students can sign up here: https://unm.joinhandshake.com/. It is recommended that you sign up while you are a student, as it is easier to create an account using your @salud.unm.edu email address.

Current Student Page

Current students have access to an internal website: https://unmhsc.sharepoint.com/sites/DPTCurrentStudents. In addition to other useful information, it includes job information from the employers who have emailed us directly in addition to posting on Handshake.

How to Hire or Support a UNM DPT

In-Person Meetings with Students

We have resumed in-person meet-and-greets with students as of summer of 2023. Please email HSC-UNMPTProgram@salud.unm.edu if you are interested in meeting with our students.

Students Scholarships

If you are interested in providing a student scholarship, or other forms of tuition reimbursement, please email HSC-UNMPTProgram@salud.unm.edu.

Posting a Job Advertisement

If you previously paid for a posting on this page, the postings remained on this page until December 2023. If you have questions or concerns about a previously posted position, please contact us at HSC-UNMPTProgram@salud.unm.edu.

The UNM DPT program is now directing employers to utilize UNM's Handshake partnership to post open positions: https://career.unm.edu/employers/introduction-to-handshake.html. We direct our students to look at Handshake for career opportunities. Handshake is also used by other schools in the state and around the country, so it should extend your reach beyond just UNM.
