Students pursuing STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) advanced degrees in South Dakota had an ideal opportunity to further their knowledge with the Preparing For Life After Graduate School Workshop. The workshop, which was geared towards career development, was held in Chamberlain, SD last summer as a joint effort between SD EPSCoR and the American Chemical Society (ACS) to teach graduate students and postdoctoral scholars about STEM career ioptons and how to prepare for them.
