Integrity-driven multi-disciplinary scientist hoping to pivot into a data analyst role in Biotech or contribute to CDR/ERW using expert-level skills in research, publishing, professional presenting and mentoring.
It seems unnecessary to define STEM in the 21st century, so maybe I should discuss why modern university professorship in a STEM discipline is far more than classroom teaching. Not that teaching isn’t a meaningful, full time career in itself, but it is only a portion of a STEM faculty member’s responsibilities. We are also expected to conduct cutting-edge research, mentor young adults in research, to be entrepreneurial, seeking grants to pay for the research, publish the research outcomes and in some cases apply for patents. In addition to the broad categories of teaching and research, we conduct the business of governing and managing the university through committee work. (We call it service.) In my impression, as a STEM professor, most of us work 60 hour weeks, if not more. "More" about the workload in the next post.

There's a public perception gap between what is true about the value of a college degree and what the public believes to be true for themselves and others. Included in the gap are significant caveats to consider when determining whether to attend and what career to pursue. As Michelle Mulder shares, students are concerned about the real-world value of their degree. Our social intelligence research shares strategies and recommendations to shift perception and close the gap. By illustrating their value and combatting the negative perception of a “worthless” college degree, campuses can align the public narrative with the value students say they receive and begin rebuilding trust in higher ed. #HigherEducation #SocialIntelligence #HigherEdLeadership https://lnkd.in/gP9Fphhu
I spent my weekend with three 20-year-olds and as is often the case with parents, the conversation turned to what they're going to do with their life. Believe me, these are their favorite conversations. 🙄 😄 But we did talk about how prepared they feel. One daughter studies nuclear engineering and has an internship. It's been a great experience, but doesn't feel that what she's learning at school will eventually translate to her career. My other daughter and her girlfriend are liberal arts majors who have interests in women's studies, english, and political science. How can they translate these interests into satisfying careers? With all three, the findings from Campus Sonar's research on rebuilding trust rings true. - How are campuses aligning their outcomes with students' expectations and perceptions? The nuclear engineering path is definitely opening doors, but will my daughter see the value in all of her hard work in her future career? - How are campuses supporting students and helping them pair their interests with the right career experience? Can they better prepare students to take advantage of opportunities, tailor their majors, and consider their major's ROI? In the report, more than 40% of the conversation included this type of advice for prospective students, but are campuses paying attention? Positive experiences build trust and affinity for your campus, which contribute to a stronger brand. Listen to your students to align your messaging, but more importantly to meet their needs and give them the value they deserve from college. Get the research. https://lnkd.in/gVFD7JcN

As technical schools fail, attitudes toward career education must change. Attitudes toward four-year college degrees have changed rapidly over the past decade, yet schools that offer career-focused associates degrees are still struggling to recruit. Unfortunately for students well-suited for career and technical education (CTE), the stigma against foregoing college remains intense. The recent failures of Pittsburgh Technical College and Triangle Tech, two schools that train young people (and older people) for careers as skilled workers, showcase the disruption in all types of higher education from economic and demographic shifts. It’s easy, in a world that has come to see four-year colleges as the only worthy post-secondary education, to consider these closures beneath notice. https://loom.ly/jfQeQPg
