This practical guide showcases alternative career opportunities for life science researchers beyond academia. Written by active professionals with hands-on experience, the book provides a comprehensive overview of non-academic roles and the many career paths available.
In our life science education, many of us undergo classical academic training, preparing to perform university research. However, only 20-30% of students end up in permanent academic positions. The rest is leaving the field due to the challenging conditions and a lack of secured employment. As the area continues to expand and diversify, so do chances for career development outside the traditional routes. There is a growing demand for trained experts to fill various jobs in industry, government, and other sectors.
Here, you will find guidance on leveraging your scientific experience to best succeed in the different roles. What is more, the preparation of your resume (CV), cover letter, and social media “attire” (LinkedIn) is covered. Interviews with selected personalities from the various domains provide unique insights into life journeys with true practical relevance. Final, this work advises universities and academic entities on how a corresponding education model could be embedded in their curricula to provide our future graduates from the life sciences with a full spectrum of their options.
