Career Opportunities

Each graduate of the Mortuary Science Program at Cypress College has great opportunities for success and financial independence in service to others. Those who enter the mortuary profession gain the skills and satisfaction that comes from bringing strength and comfort to families during their time of need as well as to the community as a whole.

Funeral directors do more than sell caskets. They know more than just how to create a memorable service. Funeral directors are professionals who show others by example how to respect the deceased and maintain proper dignity, compassion, and efficiency in service to humankind. They are protectors of public health, working with people of all ages and ethnicities.

Caring for people is what life is all about, and in Funeral Service, there are numerous opportunities for those who believe that they have something to give. A career in Mortuary Science is for a caring professional who wishes to share his or her knowledge and compassion.
