Katie’s Answer

Your time at Rice University can do more than help you build a resume; it can also help you figure out how you want to use your degree.

Internships are a good way for you to gain experience in the workforce and determine if the industry/area of focus is a good fit for you. Start researching how your school supports internship programs including the deadlines for applying.

Participate in activities with the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and similar organizations. They will often have guest speakers from industry who may talk working in their industry or give general career advice.

Take advantage of the career services your school may offer including but not limited to resume review, interview workshops, and mock interviews. Attend career fairs to learn about what companies are looking for in their candidates.
