As we count down to graduation, take a moment to meet @CornellDysonSchool’s Josh Figueroa ‘24 🎓 Q: What is the most valuable thing you learned in your time at Cornell? A: The most valuable thing I learned at Cornell was to be curious. I found immense value in learning more about my professors' and peers’ backgrounds outside of an academic setting. Q: Doing the greatest good is a big part of being a #Cornellian. How will you carry this into your career and life after Cornell? A: As I transition to my career and life after Cornell, I will always exercise the act of service and keep in mind its relevance and positive impact on many people. The service of others, whether it was a professor extending their office hours or an upperclassman sharing their wisdom with me, has positively shaped my time at Cornell, and this is something that I will always be grateful for. I plan to provide service to others, whether sharing my wisdom and experiences with undergraduate students, engaging in alum programming events, or participating in any philanthropic efforts. Q: Tell us what made your Dyson experience so impactful. A: My Dyson experience has been tremendous because of the curriculum, faculty investment in the student's development and learning, and endless professional resources. Our students can pursue and learn about their desired career paths, whether it's in financial services, consulting, or any other pocket in the business world. Our dedicated professors and student and career services offices make this possible [...] to ensure that we're in the best possible position for life after Dyson. 📸 Photo provided by Josh Figueroa

The Job Shadow Program deadline is fast approaching on Friday, October 13! If you are a 3rd or 4th year undergraduate student in the Carleton University Faculty of Public Affairs (FPA) or Carleton University Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS), explore relevant career paths and gain a better understanding of what skills or qualifications are needed in your field of interest. Hear what past students have to say about their experience in the Job Shadow Program: "I think this program gives students the ability to dip their feet in the world of their potential future career so they can experience the ins and outs and truly decide whether this path is for them. After speaking with [my Job Shadow Mentor], this allowed me to hear the educational timeline of someone in my field as it was something I was struggling with - should I get my master's right away, should I go to college, should I jump into the work world, is volunteering really that important along the way? This offered me insight into my own personal decisions and pathway." - 4th year Cognitive Science student Apply now: https://lnkd.in/e8X-KKX2

On summer. Summer is about 45 days away for academics in the United States. Summer can mean many things for academics ... For many, it means: 1. Quiet time to write. 2. Attending conferences. 3. Visiting colleagues on their campuses. 4. Participating in workshops. 5. Completing your degree and moving to a new school. No matter what summer means to you, take time to. 1. recharge with an e-mail-free holiday. 2. recalibrate expectations to allow for work-life balance. 3. visit your family - your parents and children's don't grow younger. 4. plan an adventure (bc academic life can be dull). 5. take that adventure (bc memories of adventure can carry you through the academic year). Academic life moves quickly, take time this summer to slow down and enjoy the ride! #academiclife #worklifebalance #academiccareers #summer
