ASEEES Announces Program Exploring Career Diversity

In response to our members’ growing interest in building careers outside of academia, we are pleased to announce the launch of a new mentoring program. ASEEES Exploring Career Diversity is a service that matches professionals with SEEES MA/PhDs employed beyond the professoriate with PhD students and recent PhDs who are interested in broadening their career horizons. Drawing on the success of our Mentoring Program, the new program provides one-time informational interviews with professionals in interested non-academic fields, as matched by our Committee on Non-Academic Careers according to preferences for employment sector, type of work, geographic location, and/or field of study.

The junior contact must be an ASEEES member to participate in this service, but the senior contact need not be an ASEEES member to volunteer. 

For more information on the program and to sign up, see ASEEES Exploring Career Diversity.
