Nontraditional careers in chemistry.

Obtaining a degree is the first step of many building blocks that will form your career. For chemists, there are so many options available to recent graduates whether they are seeking a career after undergrad or graduate school. Where should they begin? What sorts of jobs should they be seeking? This volume answers all of that and more.

This book is a valuable resource for all first-time job seekers in the chemical sciences, for potential entrepreneurs, and for those who wish to pave a new path. It provides engaging and informative perspectives on early-career success for chemists hoping to pursue a less traditional career within the field. Written by professionals with a range of experiences, this volume equips chemists and chemical engineers with the professional tools they need to succeed in a nontraditional
career.

Über Autor(innen)

Mark Benvenuto is a Professor of Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Detroit Mercy and a Fellow of the American Chemical Society. His research interests span a wide array of subjects, including the synthesis of novel materials for water remediation; plus the use of energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy to determine trace elemental compositions of aquatic and land-based plant matter, food and
dietary supplements, and medieval and ancient artifacts. He served as the chairperson of his department at UDM for 18 years. Benvenuto received a B.S. in chemistry from the Virginia Military Institute and, after several years as a lieutenant in the United States Army, a Ph.D. in inorganic chemistry from the University of
Virginia. After a postdoctoral fellowship at the Pennsylvania State University, he joined the faculty at the University of Detroit Mercy in 1993.
