EBIO Workshops
In Spring 2021, academic advisor ManuelaÌýMejÃa and the EBIO department ran a workshop series to better connect and support EBIO students.
EBIO Careers
This workshop concentrated on some of the different career paths EBIO students will have upon the completion of the degree. We partnered with Career Services (Evan Ferg) and EBIO faculty members (Dr. Nichole Barger and Dr. Laura Dee)Ìýto best support this conversation, as well as bring different examples of positions that EBIO students are more than qualified to apply to.ÌýWe discussed topicsÌýsuch as:
