How many times have you been asked, “What are you going to do with a meat science degree?” While there are traditional answers to that question, there are some non-traditional answers that may peek your interests. This year SLC will focus on entering the workforce. We will explore some “odd-ball” meat science careers that you may not have considered including areas in journalism, food distribution, animal handling, rendering, and non-profit organizations. Then we will explore the meaning of working well with others through personality profiling. What will you learn about yourself? We will conclude the conference with tips and tricks to approaching professional members.
Plan to join us Saturday, March 15, 2014 for the Student Leadership Conference. The conference will be held in Wichita, Kansas at the Cargill Innovation Center. Registration is limited to 80 students this year – so don’t wait to register.
