"My Future Self, Vol. 2": A Seminar for Students on Future Life Planning (Wed., Dec. 7, In-person/Online, Pre-registration Required)
Event Date
Event Venue
November 15, 2022
We will be holding "My Future Self, Vol. 2," a seminar for students on future life planning.
We have named our alumni, who work in various industries, "Catalysts." We will hear their firsthand accounts based on their own experiences, covering topics such as how they got their jobs, the rewarding aspects of their work, balancing their private lives, and how to deal with the various anxieties and concerns they may face in the future.
In this second session, we will hear from male and female alumni in their 30s who are experiencing marriage, pregnancy, childbirth, and child-rearing. They will discuss the life choices they have made to get where they are today, as well as tips and tricks for balancing child-rearing and a career.
Why not take this opportunity to imagine yourself in 5, 10, or 20 years, expand your future options, and think about the person you want to become—your "Future Self"?
If you wish to participate, please apply using the link below.
