Field Guide for Biology

Connect with Midd alums at the Biology Field Guide

Presented by the Center for Careers and Internships and cosponsored by the Biology Department, this Field Guide brings alumni back to campus to share knowledge and experience related to their post-Middlebury careers and professional lives with current students. Field Guides help students think broadly about where their academic work may lead them in a professional context by giving them the information they need to think critically about what they’ll do with their liberal arts major or degree after Middlebury.

On Thursday alumni join us for a panel discussion. Friday morning, our alumni guests have volunteered to hold one-on-one chats with students. Continue the conversation after the panel! Grab dinner from the Ross Dining Hall and head downstairs to Ross 011 for an opportunity to connect one-on-one with our visiting alumni. Get career advice, hear their stories, and expand your network in a relaxed setting. Plus, enjoy a catered dessert reception—a sweet way to wrap up the evening while making the most of your time with these incredible alumni! On Friday, meet 1:1 for an informal chat with the Alumni at the CCI office in Kitchel House. Register for both events and sign up for 1:1 chats in Handshake.
