Friday, February 19, 2010: 8:30 AM-9:30 AM
Marina Ballroom G (San Diego Marriott Hotel & Marina)
Many students pursuing a bachelor's degree plan to work for 1 to 3 years before attending graduate or professional school, and some want to start a career. This workshop explores available career pathways. Special emphasis is placed on using the science degree to work in education, health care, and other high needs areas. Several certification programs, such as alternative teaching certification, clinical laboratory science specializations, public health certificates and Master's programs, and biotechnology certificate programs, will be described. The speaker has collected case studies and developed practical advice, resources, and statistics from 7 years' experience as a career adviser at one of the largest undergraduate science programs in the country.
