Career Champions 2024: Making the Most of a Master’s Degree

With the growing number of Master’s students at Penn looking for a good return on investment for their advanced degree, including the many staff who take advantage of tuition benefits to do this, there is a high demand for career advice tailored to the graduate student experience. In this session, we will highlight the Beyond Graduate School online platform built specifically for Master’s students as a way to help them navigate the graduate student experience, and successfully position themselves for their career next steps. Join us for a tour of this resource, and get best practices for how you can use this with your graduate student populations before they arrive at Penn, while they are here, and once they graduate. As you think about this tool for the students you serve, you can also leverage it for your own professional development.
