To maximize success as a graduate student there are several of best practices that students should follow. Students are rarely given clear goals and descriptions of what is expected along their path. In this workshop session we describe what it takes to be an attractive candidate for academic or industry positions. First, we discuss the benefits of choosing academia or industry. We describe traditional and nontraditional career opportunities available to doctoral graduates. Second, we provide well-defined criteria to be competitive in either academia or industry. We discuss the expected range of publications, industry experience and teaching appointments to be a highly qualified candidate. At the conclusion of the workshop, undergraduate and graduate students will be able to design or improve their roadmap to maximizing ability to obtain an academic or industry position. One interesting aspect of the workshop is that we explicitly contrast the requirements for academia vs industry.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][hubble_gallery items=”%5B%7B%22image%22%3A%221117%22%7D%2C%7B%22image%22%3A%221118%22%7D%2C%7B%22image%22%3A%221119%22%7D%2C%7B%22image%22%3A%221125%22%7D%2C%7B%22image%22%3A%221126%22%7D%5D” columns=”2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” parallax=”content-moving-fade” css=”.vc_custom_1713138790382{background-image: url(https:\/\/netrecon.usc.edu\/baker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/sc_banner_darker-e1713138734660.jpg?id=2649) !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”130px” tablet_height=”80″ mobile_height=”70″][hubble_call_to_action heading=”Interested in Joining the Lab?” subheading=”The NetReconLab is always looking for motivated students” use_icon=”” theme=”dark-theme” btn_url=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fnetrecon.usc.edu%2Fbaker%2Fprospective-researcher%2F|title:Contact”][vc_empty_space height=”130px” tablet_height=”80″ mobile_height=”70″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
