Graduate students are regularly told the importance of networking to explore careers and identify job opportunities. However, we know that networking is understood differently in diverse cultural contexts. In this session, a career development expert will 1) share what networking means in the American context and 2) address how students can engage in career activities in comfortable ways. Participants will discuss with peers how networking is different in their cultural contexts, and identify ways that they can successfully network in the American context. This session is a collaboration between Rackham Graduate School, Graduate Rackham International (GRIN), and the Engineering Career Resource Center (ECRC).
