Professional Skills Development Seminars are highly interactive workshops where participants will learn and practice communication and negotiation skills.
This 1.5-hour seminar will focus on professional skills that women need to effectively perform research and thrive in physics, including how to:
Negotiate a graduate, postdoc, or professional position in academia, industry, or at a national lab
Interact positively on teams and with a mentor or advisor
Think tactically
Enhance personal presence
Develop alliances
