A Panel on Career Readiness Curriculum Development

In-Person

Abstract

The College of Arts & Sciences, in collaboration with ETE, is running a summer-long Career Readiness Bootcamp, aimed at helping departments align their curriculum to career readiness outcomes. This panel will include examples of how programs across our college took on this challenge, what sorts of lessons they learned, and what materials they produced. The hope is to share experiences, tips, and assessment and curriculum development tools with others who are exploring career readiness programs in their departments.
