It can be hard to know which type of job is the right fit, even if you know the field you want to be in. Some folks take a direct path, others wind their way into something they love. This interactive chat is intended to share examples of different careers within the field of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) and help students feel confident that there's a place for them, no matter their area of interest of expertise. At the end of the talk, scholarships, internships, and other student-centered opportunities will be discussed.
