Shaping Your Direction: How Graduate Students Build Powerful Résumés and CVs

This workshop empowers master’s and PhD students to translate their academic training, research experience, and professional skills into compelling application materials. Participants will learn how to shape a clear, confident career narrative, distinguish when to use a résumé versus a CV, and tailor their documents for roles in industry, government, nonprofit, and academic settings. Through practical strategies and real examples, students will leave with the tools to elevate their materials and present their expertise with clarity and impact.

This event is organized by the CFAES Office for Research and Graduate Education along with the Graduate Student Advisory Council.
