Mission Statement
The mission of the MICaB Committee for Graduate Career Development
is to promote education, opportunity, inclusion, and excellence
surrounding the exploration of available career paths. Key elements
of our mission include promoting open and candid discussions of
career path options, providing a realistic rationale for choosing
a given path that considers both the professional and personal needs
of each student, and providing mentorship, resources, and guidance
that will equip our students with the best tools to succeed within
a given career path choice. Recognizing that career development
is influenced by professional interests and opportunity as well
as life-style and life-stage considerations, our goal is to assist
our students in making the “next-steps” upon completion
of our program as new PhDs.
