We're excited to be hosting another Current Student & Alumni Speed Networking event, this year in Amherst on Saturday, October 19th! Come join us for a networking luncheon between current Environmental & Natural Resource Economics (ENRE) and Managerial Economics students and alumni. Reflect back on your career pathway to share pearls of wisdom with our current students. The success of the event relies on alumni authentically sharing their experience. Both the department and students are grateful for the time you'll be taking to share your journeys.

This is a great opportunity for you to "pay-it-forward" by sharing your career experiences, successes, and lessons learned with UMass upper-classmen. Many of our students are on the verge of stepping into "the real world" and seek guidance from those who have already established careers.
A few questions to be prepared for:
- How did your degree and the experiences/jobs you had as a student lead you to your first job?
- How did you land that first role?
- What have you carried with you from college through your career?
- What has your career trajectory looked like?
- What tips do you have for success?
Please reach out to Dorise at @email with any questions.
