Career Advancement Committee Event

The goal of the Career Advancement (Early to Mid-Career) Committee is to provide tools to members to aid in advancing their careers. Transitioning into industry from academia or advancing your career can present some difficulties or hurdles and we are not always prepared for these challenges. We would like to engage members with guest speakers and discussions on challenges that we face in the early to mid-career. 

Light refreshments will be provided.

Our next event will be March 2nd, 6pm at Hera Hub (4010 Sorrento Valley Blvd, San Diego, CA 92121).

Stay tuned for details!
