Research Questions!

[Guernica]

In one of my courses, we’re asking people to share their experiences and perspectives on how to best prepare for entering their field of work. I’m looking for anyone with a degree in Social Science (Interdisciplinary)/Cognitive science to answer these questions and help in my research. Afterwards, I’ll be discussing your feedback with my classmates, taking from my research what we can do best to prepare for our future careers. Thank you everyone for your time!

1.)  What core skill sets, knowledge, or experiences do you feel will best prepare a current college student interested in pursuing work in your field?

 

2.) If you were in a position to design a college program from the ground up specifically to prepare students to enter your field, what would you ensure was included (specific training, course content, experiences, etc.?)

 

3.) Were there specific experiences, courses, or content you received in college that helped you succeed in your career?

 

4.) Are there specific experiences, training, content you wish you received in college that you think could have helped further your career?

 

5.)  What problems, frustrations, or concerns do you see with recent college graduates entering your field these days?
