ABOUT THE WEBINAR

If you are a student in the HF/E field, this webinar is for you! Human factors/ergonomics students must navigate many issues in order to successfully prepare themselves for a career in our field. Early preparation is the key to successfully starting in your professional career.

This webinar continues the outstanding student career session that took place at the 2010 HFES Annual Meeting in San Francisco, as well as the long-standing annual meeting career panels and student career days. Each of the distinguished panelists will present important advice on career preparation issues, after which audience members can ask questions in electronic town hall meeting style.
