Workforce Trends in Geosciences Infographic
May 18, 2016 / Written by: Julie Fletcher
The colored rings signify the different sectors where geoscientists work. The wedges, in turn, represent the fields where geoscientists are employed and include different examples of occupations. Where the wedges intersect with the rings indicates that those fields are included in those sectors. Image credit: Illustrator: Kathleen Cantner. Content: Heather Houlton & Abigail SeadlerThe American Geosciences Institute (AGI) developed an infographic as a part of their Preparing Our Workforce (POW) Initiative to help students entering the workforce redefine what it means to have a career in geoscience. Having a successful geoscience career is not solely about mastering the technical fields of study. Students must seamlessly integrate their interests and competencies to build a professional portfolio that bolsters their career. Recognizing the importance of emphasizing the transferability of skills across different fields is imperative to students’ employability as geoscientists.
