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.
Career Advancement Committee events in spring will take place at Hera Hub Sorrento Mesa, 4010 Sorrento Valley Blvd, San Diego, CA 92121 from 6-7:30 pm. Light refreshments will be provided.
