Careers in Science Academic Careers Government & Private Job Postings Assignment

Careers versus “The Job” Jobs pay the bills. Job synonyms: work, employment, your position Career synonyms: occupation, profession, your calling. As you build a career in science or any other discipline you will have many jobs, a.k.a. work experiences. Jobs should also facilitate your career strategy. Good jobs will provide opportunities for you to learn new skills. Good jobs will challenge you so to increase your disciplinary knowledge base and experience. You should set career goals. Keep these goals in mind when considering jobs and when determining whether to stay at a job or move on.

Career Planning Starts Now! Now what courses and GPA you will need. Review programs early (sophomore year) Be open minded about all subdisciplines. Get engaged in science outside of coursework – Undergraduate research opportunities – Internship programs (research – industry - professional) – Demonstrate interest (clubs and Sci.Tech. Seminars)Sci.Tech. Seminars – Tutor in the Learning Center – References (typically three minimum) Take any entrance exams early (junior year) Have a “Back-up Plan”!

Careers in Academia: The Traditional Path to Full Professor Undergraduate Education (BSc) and Research Experience (4-5 y). Graduate Degrees: – M.Sc.
