The College of Engineering, Forestry, and Natural Sciences is training the next generation of teachers, engineers, and scientists to meet the growing challenges of the twenty-first challenges in natural resource management, science, and technology.
A CEFNS degree offers many opportunities in the work force. Become part of the fast growing “green technology,” biotechnology, and medical research industries. Participate in business or agency internships and gain practical research and work experience that will give you a head start with your job search.
- Searching for a job can be time intensive. Be creative and start early. Use a variety of online sources to find jobs. Learn what your peers did to find a job. Take the time to explore job titles and descriptions – some companies may be looking for scientists but list positions using other titles such as engineer or product developer.
Participate in our On-Campus Career Events
- Throughout the year employers come to campus to recruit talented NAU students through job fairs, information sessions, and on-campus interviews. CEFNS and Gateway career events are designed to connect you with potential employers. These events not only open doors to employment after graduation but can direct you to potential undergraduate internships as well.
- You have completed your education, acquired additional skills through undergraduate internships, and are ready to take your place in the workforce. Anybody should see that you are qualified and prefect for the job, right? Not necessarily. In a competitive workforce, it is important to put your best foot forward. Creating a professional cover letter and resume are vital in getting that job interview, and developing strong interview skills will ultimately convince an employer that you are right for the job.
