PhDs work wherever smart people are needed. In today’s creative economy, a faculty career isn’t the only option for PhDs who are seeking engaging and rewarding work. PhDs work in every part of the economy – industry, nonprofits, higher education, and government.

When: December 8 - 11, from 12 p.m. – 12:45 p.m. ET

  • December 8 - Introduction to Optimal Career Pathway/How to decide
  • December 9 - How to identify your values
  • December 10 - How to identify your most marketable skills
  • December 11 - How to build your network using on campus resources

Who should attend: This series is uniquely designed for doctoral students, PhDs, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:

  • What other career options are available to PhDs in my discipline?
  • How to identify career pathways that are right for me?
  • What can I do with my PhD?
