Paper on Future of Your Career

-- a university of arizona course on methods and approaches for studying the future

Each student will develop paper about the future of their career. The specific topic is open but pick something that you have chosen or want to investigate as a possible career. Write the paper in a way that you would like to receive a report done by someone else.

The format is: 3-5 pages to include Introduction (focus the reader on the topical matter), Assumptions (what are assumption rather than facts), Primary Trends or Changes (why is change occurring), Scenarios (a few scenarios to show possible futures if applicable to your paper), and Conclusions (what are the conclusions from your perspective, to let the reader know how you feel about the subject after this analysis).

When finished, post it in the "careers" topic of Caucus, where other students might ask you questions or learn from your efforts.
