The one-hour panel features experts representing different career in public policy and management, including university faculty, local government, and leaders from research organizations. Panelists will offer insights on the pros and cons of different career paths as well as navigating decisions regarding graduate school. Immediately following the panel, professionals will join students at tables for questions and discussion about graduate school and career paths. We'll rotate once after the first 15-minutes so students can engage with multiple panelists.

We encourage students to attend the APPAM Career & PhD Program Fair from 1:00 - 3:00 PM just prior to this session. Then the Poster Reception & Student Mixer immediately after this session.
