In the Wooster Earth Sciences program, our students are connected to the resources they need to explore their professional aspirations.
We encourage students to visit Career Planning in APEX, where they can learn more about Earth Science careers, find internships and research opportunities, network with professionals, and apply to graduate school or employment opportunities. We regularly update our Earth Sciences Facebook page and the bulletin board on the first floor of Scovel with job postings, scholarships, and other experiential opportunities, so check back often!
