Graduate Student Research Symposium Keynote Address
Susan Basalla, Ph.D.
“What Every Graduate Student Should Know About Jobs Outside Academia”
Monday, March 30, 2009
4:10pm, SLC Ballroom C
The academic job market is fickle and slow. Why not keep your options open by exploring careers outside academia while you wait? Learn about alternatives to adjuncting and how to avoid the job-hunting mistakes that grad students most frequently make. Basalla offers real-life examples and practical step-by-step advice for M.A’s and Ph.D.’s seeking fulfilling work outside academia.
The first 150 students will receive a FREE copy of her co-authored book, “So What Are You Going to Do with That? Finding Careers Outside Academia.”
Refreshments will be served prior to the talk. This event is sponsored by the Graduate Student Council, The Robert Penn Warren Center for the Humanities and the Department of Pharmacology.
Two free copies of this book will be distributed at our monthly GSC meetings through March!
