Careers
The key to a successful career is finding a path which fits not only your skills and interests, but also your values. Though most graduate students have only been exposed to faculty careers in academia, the truth is that fewer than 30% of Ph.D.s will have a permanent academic job.
Therefore it's incredibly important that you begin exploring all of the career options - and understanding which is best for you - early in your graduate studies. The sooner this work begins, the better your chances of successfully pursuing a career you love after graduation.
