FACT SHEET – CONNECTING PHYSICS STUDENTS TO CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

The AIP’s Statistical Research Center has posted a new report:

Fact Sheet-Connecting Physics Students to Career Opportunities

This report is a guide created by the Career Pathways Project (CPP) and is designed to enhance the work being done by career services professionals with physics undergraduates and physics faculty members.

This document provides tips on resume writing, identifies some of the skills developed during the typical undergraduate physics experience, lists common job titles held by recent physics bachelor’s degree recipients, and offers suggestions for effective career advising of physics undergraduates.

The CPP was a collaboration of the Education Division and the Statistical Research Center, both of the American Institute of Physics. The Career Pathways Project was supported by the National Science Foundation.
