Career Chat - Environmentally Friendly Careers

The Career Chat series provides graduate students with an opportunity to
visit with graduate-level alumni who work in various fields. This Career
Chat will focus on jobs that help the environment - through research,
education, policy, advocacy, and many other methods. The Career Chat is
"informal" so feel free to bring your dinner, a friend, and a few questions!
This event is scheduled for the afternoon of the Environmental Opportunities
Fair and is co-sponsored by the UW Career Center, Program on the Environment
and the Environmental Advising Group. No registration required.
Both fairs will be located in the heart of the campus, in Mary Gates Hall Commons, from 10:00-2:00.
Each day 12,000 students and 400 faculty members spend time inside Mary Gates Hall, making it a great spot
for visibility of your organization. For the location of Mary Gates Hall and the Central Plaza Parking Garage, please see the campus map. |
