Balancing Planet and People: A Fellow’s Holistic Approach to Conservation
Sonia Delphin-Pérez may be a first-year doctoral student and University Fellow, but she joins the Natural Resources and the Environmental graduate program with a wealth of experience in field work, education, and advocacy. After years of conservation efforts with the World Wildlife Fund, she is expanding her expertise to include social and economic factors in preserving the natural world.

Have a better answer next time someone asks, “So what’s your plan after the degree?”
Graduate students are expected to do it all: coursework, research, writing, teaching, professional development, and more. At times, it can feel overwhelming, particularly if all this work feels like it’s pulling the graduate student in competing directions. Enter the Individual Development Plan!

Writing: the Epicenter of Graduate Student Success
Most graduate students probably recognize Shelley Hawthorne Smith’s name from her invaluable emails on funding opportunities and resources from the Office of Fellowships and Community Engagement. What you may not know is that Hawthorne Smith recently joined the team working in the Graduate Center, and that she has a number of exciting projects in the works!

Exploring Career Pathways
Though it’s often taken as a given that graduate students will pursue careers in academia, we know that in reality, they enter a wide array of positions. The Graduate Center is working to raise awareness of the multitudinous possibilities open to graduate students and to help prepare students for any employment sector that interests them, be it academia or otherwise. In this final installment of a four-part series on multiple career pathways for graduate students, we focus on the employment trajectories of Cathy de la Cruz<https://arizona.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3d962eebb8a6f9b56f119b2e&id=d27e7eb845&e=4d15a52a2b> (MFA in Creative Writing), Lisa Felix-Strishock<https://arizona.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3d962eebb8a6f9b56f119b2e&id=f72d0242bb&e=4d15a52a2b> (PhD in Science Education and Environmental Learning), and Danielle Lydia Sheather<https://arizona.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3d962eebb8a6f9b56f119b2e&id=30ac5db5ee&e=4d15a52a2b> (MFA in Performance & Choreography).
