Students are Saying
“The most important lesson that I learned from employers was about how I can break into different fields that are not necessarily directly related to my degree. Specifically, it’s more important what you do with your degree, rather than what you study.”
“The panel talk has opened my perspective on how different everyone’s career path is. The big take-home message for me was that we were going to get out what we put into our education and careers whether that be with CMA, or another facility. Overall Beyond120 deepened my knowledge of this field and shined light on new opportunities.”
