<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman","serif";color:black">Physics degree
holders are among the most employable in the world, often
doing everything from managing a research lab at a
multi-million dollar corporation, to developing solutions to
global problems in their own small startups. Science and
technology employers know that with a physics training, a
potential hire has acquired a broad problem-solving skill
set that translates to almost any environment, as well as an
ability to be self-guided and -motivated so that they can
teach themselves whatever is needed to be successful at
achieving their goals. Therefore it's no surprise that up to
70% of physics graduates find employment in private sector,
industrial settings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman","serif";color:black">Nevertheless, few
students graduate with a robust awareness of careers outside
of the academic realm, or with additional skills which will
increase their workforce competitiveness among other STEM
graduates. In this talk, I will explore less-familiar (but
more common!) career paths for physics graduates, and will
provide information for students--and their faculty
mentors--on how we can do more to prepare our students for a
diverse range future career outcomes.<b><i><o:p></o:p></i></b></span></p>
