You get to do real research this summer — make it count. This kickoff workshop is designed to help you think intentionally about what you want to gain from the next few months, whether that means developing new skills, exploring career paths, building connections, or discovering the kind of researcher you want to become.

Join us for an interactive workshop where we’ll discuss SMART goal setting, career readiness skills, and strategies to stay motivated and organized throughout the summer. Through group activities and discussions, you’ll reflect on your goals, create actionable plans, and learn how the NACE career readiness competencies connect to your research experience and future career goals.

✨ Topics include:

• Writing effective SMART goals

• Building a summer action plan

• Tracking progress and growth

• Connecting your summer experience to future career goals

Come ready to reflect, plan, and set yourself up for a successful summer ☀️
