BECOMING A RESILIENT SCIENTIST SERIES
Navigating school, the career exploration process, research environments, and the stress of national/international news can seem overwhelming and lead us to doubt ourselves just when we need confidence the most. Through workshops in this series, we will work to identify attitudes and behaviors that can help us be more resilient as we navigate difficult situations in school, work and life. Each workshop will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for success in research and healthcare careers and will provide strategies for developing these competencies as part of your educational journey. While you may participate in any of the webinars, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series. Data show that trainees who attended most of the sessions of the earlier “Becoming a Resilient Scientist Series” reported that they had become more resilient, were better able to handle stress and conflict in their lives, and would recommend the series highly to their colleagues.
The workshops in the series are:
Session 1 (September 23) – An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness
Session 2 (October 7) – Exploring our Self-Talk: Cognitive Distortions and Imposter Fears
Session 3 (October 21) – Self-Advocacy and Assertiveness for Scientists
Session 4 (November 4) – Developing Feedback Resilience
Session 5 (November 18) – Managing Up to Maximize Mentoring Relationships

Leaving Academia: A Practical Guide with Dr. Christopher Caterine
2021-11-04 15:30 - 16:45 | Zoom
An estimated ninety-three percent of graduate students in the humanities and social sciences won’t get a tenure-track job, yet many still assume that a tenured professorship is the only successful outcome for a PhD. With the academic job market in such crisis, this lecture from PhD and former academic Christopher Caterine helps grad students and academics in any scholarly field find satisfying careers beyond higher education. From the research he did for his book Leaving Academia, Chris offers invaluable advice to visiting and adjunct instructors ready to seek new opportunities, to scholars caught in “tenure-trap” jobs, to grad students interested in non-academic work, and to committed academics who want to support their students and contingent colleagues more effectively.
The CNY Humanities Corridor “Humanities Beyond the Academy” working group hosts a series of mini-residencies for publicly engaged humanistic scholars, bringing together those interested in public humanities and careers outside the academy. Cornell University, Syracuse University and University of Rochester are collaborating together for Humanities PhDs and Postdocs.

Practical Steps for the Post-Academic Job Search: a workshop with Dr. Christopher Caterine
2021-11-05 13:00 - 14:15 | Zoom
You may have heard that a PhD prepares you for anything and that a perfect job awaits you outside the academy. But how do you find suitable roles and convince others that you’re the right person to fill them? This workshop will lead you through the practical steps of identifying your strengths, using information interviews to explore new careers, and translating your experience for non-academic employers. You will leave the session with the skills to continue exploring diverse professional paths and a checklist of actions to keep momentum going over the coming months.

Panelists:
Carolyn Chow
Carolyn Chow is currently a staffing consultant for Cornell’s Recruiting and Employment Center in the Division of Human Resources. As an undergraduate at Rutgers University, Carolyn’s interest in research, teaching, and academia led to pursuing a PhD in Speech Communication from the University of Washington. Her experiences during graduate school as a lesbian of color at a predominantly white institution greatly informed her shift in devoting her career to promoting equity, inclusion, and a sense of belonging in higher education. She left graduate school with her Master of Arts and a new purpose, embarking on a career in admissions and student services. As director of admissions and student diversity at the UW School of Nursing and as a consultant for the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, Carolyn reformulated admissions and student services to better recruit and retain traditionally marginalized students, faculty, health providers and their patients. Upon coming to Cornell, Carolyn transitioned her career to human resources, first at CVM and now in Central HR, using her transferrable skills to find tremendous meaning and purpose in getting to recruit and support Cornell’s staffing initiatives through a DEI lens.
Jason Kahabka
Associate Dean Jason Kahabka’s broad portfolio of financial and student service responsibilities in the Graduate School may seem only loosely related to his academic background in Environmental Science. As a Cornell undergraduate, Jason earned a BS in International Agriculture and Rural Development then completed a MS degree at Cornell, conducting research on the statistical and GIS tools that can be deployed to minimize water pollution from agriculture. After several years working as an extension associate Jason stepped into a series of administrative and leadership roles at Cornell that have drawn upon a wide range of skills that he first began to develop as a student researcher.
Miranda Swanson
Miranda Swanson serves as Associate Dean for Student Services in the College of Engineering. Her portfolio includes admissions, advising, the registrar’s office, the career center, and the Engineering Learning Initiatives program. Her undergraduate degree is a BFA in studio art from the University of Nebraska after which she earned a M.A. in Humanities at the University of Chicago. After finishing her master’s and working for a couple of years in student affairs, she decided not to pursue a Ph.D. in English and instead continued on her journey as a student affairs practitioner in higher education which has ultimately led her to Cornell (and she loves it here!).
Jai Sweet
Jai Sweet is the Assistant Dean for Veterinary Student Services and Admissions at the College of Veterinary Medicine. Her broad portfolio includes admissions, career development and student support services for the DVM program. Jai came to Cornell from New Delhi, India in pursuit of a graduate education. She completed a PhD in Human Development at Cornell during which time she grew increasing fascinated with late adolescence and early adulthood as a life stage. A combination of serendipity (largely) and self- reflection (to a smaller extent) led her to first (temporary) job in Higher Education Administration 25 years ago. She has not looked back!

Transferrable Skills – How to Communicate Your Job Ready Skills to Industry
2021-11-30 12:00 - 13:00 | Zoom
The workshop will identify the skills that hiring managers are seeking and work with YOU to identify the skills you already possess. The workshop will explore ways to effectively communicate skills and training to industry (non-profits, business, government, think tanks and more!) in a language that is relevant to that sector. Staff at Careers Beyond Academia will teach you how to recognize the difference between technical skills, interpersonal skills and subject matter expertise.

Stephen Kim completed his PhD in English at Cornell in 2020 with minor fields in FGSS and American Studies. During his time as a graduate student, he worked for Cornell’s Intergroup Dialogue Project (IDP). After graduating, he took a full-time position with IDP as their curriculum specialist. Though this is not the career path he imagined for himself when starting graduate school, his training in FGSS has prepared him well for his current position, which involves EDI work in both academic and student life spaces.
Lynne Stahl is the Humanities Librarian at West Virginia University. She earned her PhD in English from Cornell in 2015, and her research interest spans film, gender theory, popular culture, and critical information studies.

Thinking of a career in Academic Publishing?
2021-12-07 16:30 - 17:30 | Zoom, NY, United States
This webinar features two professionals from Cornell University Press.
Martyn Beeny is Marketing and Sales Director at Cornell University Press after holding the same role at University of Nebraska Press. Martyn entered publishing while completing his Ph.D. in history. He never intended to be a book marketer, but when a job opened at the South Dakota State Historical Society Press that combined his love of books and history it seemed a good idea. His apprenticeship with this small publisher changed his career path from academia to marketing and publishing. After eight years in South Dakota, he worked as Marketing and Sales Director at one of the largest university presses in Lincoln, NE, before moving to Cornell UP, where he has been for five years.
Bethany Wasik is an acquisitions editor at Cornell University Press, currently acquiring projects in the fields of Classics, Archaeology, Modern European History, and Military History. Prior to joining the acquisitions team at Cornell University Press six years ago, she completed a Ph.D. at Indiana University and two postdoctoral fellowships in molecular biology and genetics at Yale and Cornell Universities. In addition to her science background, she minored in anthropology with a focus on archaeology, and took a wide range of history courses as an undergraduate. Her transition from academics to publishing was fueled by a passion for editing and reviewing scholarly content and a desire to promote that content to a larger audience.
