The Universe of Careers Waiting for You: Plan Now for Your Success

The universe of careers available to STEM graduates outside academia is widespread and exciting, but those in STEM often have limited knowledge of the types of careers they can pursue upon completion of their training. This workshop engages with strategies to explore career opportunities based on a variety of factors (e.g., personal interests, industry trends, desired geography) to help clarify possible career paths. Come and explore careers that align with your interests and learn Dr. Josh Henkin’s framework for a strategic, individualized career search. This workshop will prepare you to identify potential careers and focus on skill development that will enable you to be strong candidates for the positions you seek in the future. Please bring notetaking tools.

This is the first of four STEM Industry Careers workshops for PhD students and postdocs, presented by Dr. Josh Henkin, founder of STEM Career Services. The series is organized by the Graduate School and Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, with support from the GSO, Upstate Medical University College of Graduate Studies, the College of Arts & Sciences, SUNY ESF Graduate School, the College of Engineering and Computer Science, and WiSE.
