STEM Career Workshops

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: AWIS San Diego

  • Our sessions on Career Roadmap will be from 2:15-4:00 PM

  • There will be three panels of 30 minutes on each of the following topics:

  1. Self-promotion covering resumes, LinkedIn and interview skills

  2. Internships and mentorship covering examples and opportunities for internships, how to obtain an internship position, and how to find and use good mentors

  3. Admissions and scholarships covering how to get into STEM programs (undergraduate and graduate) and how to fund your education

  • We ask our panelists to choose one session and speak to one of these areas of career development (with additional suggestions for sub-topics welcomed!)

  • Groups of around 30 young women attendees will rotate through the session and be able to attend each, so each panel will happen three times consecutively.

  • Our panelists will be featured individually in our program and will be able and encouraged to provide handouts

  • The sessions will be followed by a happy hour to network further with the young women as well as the other attendees!
