Consulting is a popular career path that’s open to individuals with diverse professional degrees and backgrounds—including those with PhDs in STEM. Consulting provides the opportunity to learn about business strategy and operations in the corporate world, and allows you to use the problem-solving skills you learned as a trainee in Academia while you gain project management, communications, and partnership development skills.

Intrigued? Then join us for our 90-minute webinar, Career Paths In Consulting and Beyond, next Thursday, November 12, 2020, from 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM EST. Register now for this webinar brought to you by the NY Academy of Sciences Science Alliance program.
