Through access to professionals and fellow students from all over the world, SNAME student members are fine-tuning their goals and shaping their careers. For those of you who know exactly where you are headed, or those of you who are still searching for your ideal career path, there are SNAME members who are happy to share their knowledge and experience with you - at local Section meetings, at the SNAME Maritime Convention, or through our online communities.
Barr Turner, Chair of SNAME's Student Steering Committee and a student at Webb Institute, recently addressed volunteer leaders at SNAME's Council Retreat. Barr advised students to "never pass up the opportunity to strike up a conversation, to take an empty seat at a dinner table, or most importantly, to get more involved in SNAME. It will have a great impact on your career." Listen to Barr's comments from the Retreat.
