A handy guide for students seeking a scientific career in industry When choosing a career in industry, many of today's graduates with degrees in science and technology don't know exactly what they are looking for, the options they have available, how to position themselves to achieve their goals, or even how to define their own meanings of success.
"There is a lot of other good advice which should be useful to new starters in industry." ( Chemistry World , August 2010)
