Career Gateway Coffee Chat
What is a coffee chat? A coffee chat is an informal, in-person or virtual meeting with an experienced professional to learn more about a specific topic, an industry or a specific career path.
Our Career Gateway Coffee Chat series will provide information from an expert in the field followed by time for questions and discussion.
Our first coffee chat virtual series will include three programs each addressing a timely and important topic among students, faculty, and researchers, particularly following the challenges imposed by the pandemic. These sessions aim to provide participants
with strategies for improving work-life balance. Each session will include a 30-minute presentation followed by a question-and-answer session.
