The office of Career Development at Chatham University is co-sponsoring a speaker series for students interested in environmental issues. It is a monthly luncheon series entitled “Pathways to Sustainable Careers” which features the decision pathways of successful people in environmental fields ranging from non-profit management and advocacy to financial portfolio and academic research. Our goal is to offer students the opportunity to learn more about the wide range of careers available within the field of sustainability by hearing each month from a professional that is working in a different aspect of the field each month. (The dates, location and times are listed below.)
Students from all local colleges and universities are invited to attend. We would simply ask that interested students email us to RSVP at careers@chatham.edu and let us know what university/college they are from, just so we have an idea of how many to expect.
