In this competitive market, all students should be taking advantage of every opportunity for career exploration. Do not put all your energy into following just one job or internship lead . . . . focus on having MANY avenues, plans, fall back plans, and alternatives. You want to gain control over this job and internship process. The best way to do so is to remain active with targeting the market and opportunities for you.
If you are interested in exploring a fellowship, take a moment and request a copy of the recent CCS handout, Fall Fellowships for some ideas about opportunities with deadlines in September and October. Other fellowship opportunities will be posted in Symplicity and on the weekly Buzz. Fellowships are available nationwide and the handout will give you a sampling of ideas. You can stop by the office and pick up a copy or request one by emailing the office.
