Career Exploration Panel

Learn About Aquatic Conservation and Education Careers

Are you interested in learning more about careers in biology, environmental education, veterinary medicine, diving, and more? WAVE Foundation is excited to offer teen and adult students the opportunity to talk to professionals in these fields through our Career Exploration Panels.

These panels are offered on a quarterly basis and have 3-5 professionals on the panel to discuss their work, education, and how they got where they are today. Our panelist will also answer questions from participants.
