Twenty-eight employers representing natural resources, fisheries and sciences fields will be at the Natural Resources, Fisheries and Sciences Job Fair 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 27 at the Wood Center. For a current list of participating employers, visit Career Services.

Contacts from federal, state and private employers will be on hand to discuss summer and full-time employment and internship opportunities. Students and job-seekers attending the fair will learn about the qualities, skills, education and experience employers look for; the wide range of possible educational, employment, and internship opportunities available; and whether or not a graduate degree is helpful in a particular field.

Some employers, such as U.S. Fish and Wildlife, ExxonMobil, Shell, and Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association, will be conducting interviews for summer internships during or after the fair. To apply for these interviews, UAF students and alumni should visit the Career Services website and select UAF CareerConnect.

The fair is sponsored by UAF Career Services, College of Natural Science and Mathematics, School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, School of Natural Resources and Agricultural Sciences and the UAF Alumni Association.
