An invited talk for Bachelor’s and Master’s students in psychology on exploring academic career paths – drawing on research on career exploration and on my own path from Dresden via Leipzig, Groningen, and Munich back to Dresden.
On the basis of Lent and Brown’s (2013) model of career self-management (CSM), the meta-analysis examined the antecedents and outcomes of career exploration among college students (K = 109, N = 34,969 students). The findings highlight several implications for the further development of the CSM model, future research on students’ career exploration, and career development practice.
