Is Biotechnology for me?

 

Have you ever dreamed that you would make an important scientific
discovery that would make a real difference in the world around you?

Or maybe you grew up taking your family’s television apart just because
you HAD to find out how it worked?


These could be clues to help you determine what career path to follow for your future. More than likely, you are like most people who may not be sure about what career would offer you the most satisfaction given your abilities and interests. This requires that you thoroughly research your potential career choice before making a decision.

Before you can determine if the field of Biotechnology would be a suitable career choice, it is important to gain more information about yourself and the world of work. Making a career decision involves understanding that "Career Decision Making" is a PROCESS.



The first step is trying to gain a clear picture of your self-profile. Ask yourself the following questions:

      • What are my interests?
      • What are my skills?
      • What is important to me? (my needs and values)

 

It is important to try to match your skills and interests with different
careers that might be available to you.
