Professional Development and Career Planning: Guidance for STEM Careers provides the information that will enable readers to develop a more complete education and ready them for the workplace. It helps readers recognize the importance of topics such as mentoring, developing professional attitudes, communication skills, codes of conduct, ethics, becoming knowledgeable about various aspects of professional life, and more. Each chapter of the book provides the necessary definitions, hypothetical but relevant case studies, methods and practices that can be used to identify relevant professional weaknesses, and ways to overcome each of them. This book serves as an ideal reference for any undergraduate student in the STEM field. Helps readers recognize the importance of topics such as mentoring, developing important professional attitudes, and becoming knowledgeable about aspects of professional life that are not an integral part of the technical component of any curriculum. Identifies the attitudes, abilities, and skills that will be needed to optimally meet professional responsibilities. Provides information about the use of alternative methods of thinking to achieve success in problem-solving, with special emphasis on imaginative-based methods of thinking for multi-dimensional problems.  aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 0aSciencexVocational guidance.959842 0aTechnologyxVocational guidance.995775 0aEngineeringxVocational guidance.964882 0aMathematicsxVocational guidance.995776 7aTECHNOLOGY / General2bisacsh964829 7aTECHNOLOGY / Technical Writing2bisacsh964825403Taylor & Francisuhttps://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003588481423OCLC metadata license agreementuhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf  cE-Books  c68165d68165
