Join fellow Graduate School Alumni for an informal networking event hosted by Careers, Life, and Yale and the Graduate School Alumni Association. GSAS alums will have the opportunity to meet, mingle, and share words of advice. Concurrent thematic break-out rooms will likely include:

• Consulting and finance
• Government organizations and nonprofits
• Pivoting from academia to industry
• Creating or joining a start-up
• Open discussion

This event is open to Graduate School alumni. Please register by March 27th at 12 p.m. ET. 

Join us as we hear from a diverse panel of doctors at different stages in their careers and in different areas of medicine that will provide candid views of their profession. Our three panelists represent differing perspectives: chief of a hospital division and a professor, a physician and editor, and an analyst and internist.

Topics:

•    Where is the profession heading (good and bad)?
•    How do you get into the profession and what is the typical career path?
•    What are the myths versus the realities?
•    What are the characteristics of people who tend to do well and are happy in the profession?
•    What types of people tend not to do well or end up unhappy and why?
•    If you don’t stay in the profession until retirement, what are the exit routes to other professions?

The panel discussion will be broadcast via an interactive streaming video platform that will allow Yale students and alumni to ask questions of the panel and interact with each other. There will be a 45 minute networking period after the one hour panel where all of the attendees can see each other and mingle. 

This event is the 58th in a series of events covering different professions and career issues. There have been 47 Yale Career Panels, 9 Yale Career Fireside Chats, and 1 Yale Career Conversations events. Organized 11 years ago by a group of Yale alumni volunteers, these panels strive to provide candid, unvarnished views of featured professions.

The volunteer organizers of the Yale Career Panels are Justin Kosslyn ’09, Julie Sohn ’14, Trish Takemoto ’76, and Peter Young ’74. This panel was organized by Trish Takemoto.

The Yale Club of Hartford is a sponsor of the event.  During the regional finals, Yale Club members will judge entries, and three teams of Club members will select the Club's Samuel Morse, Eli Whitney, and David Bushnell awards.  The Yale Club awards will be presented in person on June 10, 2023, at the University of Connecticut.

Volunteers should register their employer as Yale Club of Hartford. The Connecticut Invention Convention will alert the organizer of members of Team Yale Club of Hartford.

What do a Georgetown Professor and an Oxford-bound Yale Senior have in common? Marc M. Howard ’93 and JT Mullins Jr. ’23 both share a passion for criminal justice reform. You are invited to join in a conversation with these two inspiring Yalies of different generations, learning about their research and work in what Howard describes as, “restoring humanity to the American criminal punishment system.”

Join us for an exciting conversation with one of America’s foremost environmental leaders. Fred Krupp ’75 has guided the Environmental Defense Fund for three decades, overseeing its growth from a small nonprofit with a budget of $3 million to one of the world’s most influential environmental organization, with an annual budget of more than $250 million and 1000 employees. He also serves as an alumni fellow of Yale University’s board of trustees. This program, hosted in partnership with the Yale School of the Environment (YSE), is moderated by Lauren Graham ’13 MEM, chair of Yale Blue Green (YBG), and Saleem Ali ’96 MES, board member of YBG and the YSE Alumni Association.

Join us for the third session in a four-part webinar series offered by the Yale Program in Addiction Medicine in partnership with the Yale Alumni Health Network (YAHN). The first session in the series, held in October, focused on substance use and addiction in adolescents and young adults. The second session focused on the same in older adults. This session will address the intersection of substance use and pain with particular focus on palliative care and the examples of Sickle Cell Disease and cancer survivorship. The fourth and final session in this series is slated for later in the Spring (date to be announced) and will address substance use and worker health.
