Career Development 101:
This workshop enhanced my interpersonal skills, especially with employers. Although I had previously learned about the Career Center's services, the refresher was helpful. This workshop also provided some useful tips on networking, some that I currently employ and others that I plan on adding to the rotation. The workshop also provided me with an opportunity to prefect my elevator speech, something I have been putting off. It was helpful to hear other students speeches so that I could come up with a template of my own to use in the future.
Writing Articles and Getting Published:
This workshop was especially helpful since I am one of the few UROP students trying to publish a paper based on my experiences this summer. I am currently working on the paper and running the analyses and this workshop gave me some great advice on how to start certain sections of my paper and how to approach an editor with my finished product. This is my first time writing a paper and my first time attending a workshop for one and I believe my paper will be better for it. I also did not know all of the amazing tools available through the Sweetland Writing Center. I hope to use some of them to my advantage in the fall.
