Your Career and Professional Development
Your ASC advanced degree will help you develop skills valued by a wide array of employers, such as academic institutions as well as government, industry, and non-profit organizations. The ASC Center for Career and Professional Success<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/osu.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c5c8b9e4c4ea0024e7b8c1d6a&id=ee7f8d2877&e=8d1098595f__;!!KGKeukY!xBMyu0ruXMO38hyeSBosgK3R9R-Gcd88HeuzzEVqr5ue8o2UljDyn3CtwiPLgR-7gFTMdpo2wSge58RzSQ$> aims to provide resources and opportunities designed to empower you to explore career paths beyond the tenure track, develop durable skills and robust networks, and prepare you for an exciting and rewarding professional journey.

Getting Started
Each of you is in a unique position when it comes to your career and professional development.  The combination of your individual academic, personal and professional experiences and goals means that your starting point and your journey will be unique.  The stages of Explore, Develop, and Prepare & Pursue are not intended to be prescriptive, rather they offer general guideposts based on career development best practices.  We encourage you to evaluate your own situation and determine how best to utilize the following tools available on this site.  For those who are uncertain, we recommend starting with Explore.

  *   Explore - You will identify your values, skills and interests before exploring the many career paths available to you
  *   Develop – As you narrow in on a career path of interest, gain relevant experience, build valuable skills and grow your professional network
  *   Prepare + Pursue – You will learn how to craft strong professional materials tailored to each position, interview effectively and negotiate job offers
