Considering a career path outside academia? It can be confusing to figure out what else is out there, how to look for jobs, and how to decide what's right for you. Edward Dunlea, Special Assistant to the Dean of MCS, has been down this road and will offer some insights gleaned from his experiences in program management within the government, science policy both at a non-profit and within the private sector, and research administration in academia. His talk will focus on the field of science policy - what it is and how to find jobs - and he will also offer some general advice with an emphasis on careers outside of academia.
